I put my expectations for Hanamaru on my blog since I was trying to guess what source material was going to be turned into an anime before the two Touken Ranbu animes' announcement...All of the stuff I've guessed re: Hanamaru has been fulfilled so far...except for the fact I didn't expect them to launch into battle on the first ep (I thought the entire thing would be more Internal Affairs based) and the fact Hanamaru will be lighthearted compared to 2017 Touken Ranbu since there's nothing to compare to right now.

It's great to see all my sword boys animated (as I have gotten all the anime cast bar Tsurumaru) and considering I'm stuck on lvl 6-2 right now, I know how the Saniwa and Yamato feel...

I never really had a clear thought of how the swords travelled through time until now, so...now I do. Same with Hasebe being clingy and craving attention from the Saniwa, I thought he would be more aloof, but maybe that's just my ignorance of his voice lines.
