This is my first time writing a review on... well, anything really. I have to say, I loved Full Metal Alchemist, High School DxD, Tokyo Ghoul, and an avid SnK fan (Wir sind die jäger). But of all the anime I've watched, this one takes the cake.
To Start with, the beginning of the show drags most people in with action and big boobs. It was very much like any "ecchi" anime to start but gives you much much more to work with. The writer was clever enough to show you why Sengoku, the main character is there, without showing you how. This story Really takes you for a ride all across Japan and does a really good job of keeping you on your feet. I was never bored watching this show and I don't think I would be even if I watched it again.
The more I watched, the more attached I became with each of these characters. I really felt emotionally attached to each of these characters. There were several heart wrenching scenes that I could just feel the pity and sorrow of each of the individuals. Out of all the shows I've watched, these characters are easily the most likable and relatable.
For anyone out there still reading this, give this show a shot. Really, just skip anywhere along any of the episodes even if its only for 5 seconds, you'll be addicted.

Great show ! It's kind of a dream: What would you do if you were back in time during the most important era of your country ? You know History but knowing so will you alter it or keep it unchange. This anime, beyond the comedy genre, ask true question about this simple thought. Doing good, saving people can actually make History end badly... Definitely worth watching !

Since no one has written a review, why not let it fly? (first time haha)
The Ambition of Oda Nobuna really suprised me when I first began watching this series. My friend recommended it to me and trust me, I was not disappointed (he always recommends average animes).
Story: 9/10
Even though I couldn't give a crap about Japanese history or history in general, I was happily refreshed by this anime because it wasn't another high school setting harem, which was welcomed. The story is pretty quick because of the short amount of episodes and is fast-paced, which I am a fan of but I think they could have given us more episodes because I was left with A LOT of questions unanswered in my head. I also loved how the protagonist had an advantage by being from the future, where he could tell what would exactly happen and change the future.
Sound: 10/10
No complaints of the sound really, since I don't really judge an anime for it's music, but there was nothing bad to note. The opening is pretty epic too.
Charaters: 10/10
I LOOOVEDDD the characters in this anime. They were all so likeable and none of them were a pain, even the bad guys were alright at heart (except one or two).Overall, the characters all were quirky and had different personalities and I don't know how, but there is also a harem mixed into the war in Japan (no complaints here). Another is to mention is that the MAIN PROTAGONIST IS NOT USELESS!
Enjoyment: 10/10
Although there are 12 episodes, The Ambition of Oda Nobuna had a lot of action, romance and a lot of pretty girls all into one anime. I don't know why many people haven't seen it and I can tell you now that you will be entertained.
Overall: 10/10
Great story, finally a useful protagonist, enjoyable and awesome.
If you aren't convinced, I don't care! Try it alright? If you had time for reading this, go watch the first and second episode!
