English Dub Review: Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon “Kirinmaru of the Dawn”

Overview:

Kirinmaru takes the Black Pearl from Moroha. Towa, Setsuna, and Sesshomaru arrive at the scene. Meanwhile, Rion and Riku head to Mount Musubi.

Our Take:

If you want to hear Crispin Freeman yell extremely loud then this is the episode for you. Kirinmaru gets super pissed throughout so you really get in this one. Also, if you’re a huge fan of anime characters shouting out their moves then you’ll REALLY love this one. I know that it’s an anime trope but good lord there was a two-minute span where all you heard was different move names being shouted out. Sometimes it’s cool but this was not one of those times.

Do you know what is cool? Tear felt family reunions. Seeing Moroha finally get to see her mom and dad was really sweet and I can’t wait to see what happens. Let’s never mind the fact that somehow they are in a pearl or something. All I know is that the things and characters that really interest me in this universe are coming together and I can’t wait to see how it plays out.
