Brave 10: Episode 7 - Sword and Fan

Brave 10 episode 7 is already up and as usual am sharing here some screen shots, brief information and some sweet and funny moments.

The episode start's where Sanada chooses few who will accompany him to the tea party invitation at Kyou. Rokuro, Saizuo and Isanami was directly chosen by Sanada and so everybody objects it.  For Miyoshi, he needs to be near Isanami to protect her and for Yuri it would be boring without saizou around (whom we hear Sanada's comment of " you seem like a girl inlove? or sort of? hehe!).

Sanada, flirting with Ana before leaving for Kyou. Though his character is bit childish till this episode,  his true ability will be revealed soon and I was hoping its beyond compare. 

And as for this two, the bickering continue. Sasuke is so effective in challenging Saizou of how far can he go on protecting someone they cared the most.

As they go, Rokuro asked Sanada why he decided to bring along Isanami to which Sanada quicky replied " because some interesting happens if Isanami is around". As Saizou asked who would be in attendance at the tea party Sanada mentioned few people but the one highlighted was the "One Eye Dragon Of Oushuu".

We meet few new characters in this episode by the way. After Sanada and companions quick stop for a meal, we've meet this jolly little boy who informed them that the other road was closed and they need to use the other but farther route, to which later on we discovered it was full of booby trapped. After a quick commotion of who saving who, our little boy was absolutely impressed of how Sanada and group eluded the traps and asked Sanada to hire him as part of his soldiers.

Ahh, with this cute lil fella, who could have say no! 
Mochizuki Rokuro - according to him his last name was all made up. Asked by saizou to go home to his parents "he said he don't have one and is living alone".  Sanada then change his name to "Benmaru" to avoid confusion with Rokuro (Sanada's valued guard) to which Rokuro strongly opposed since it was Sanada's other name. 

Aaahh... super cute Benmaru, hope he wont be giving another headache for saizou!

 Arriving at the Tea party we meet:

Ishida Mitsunari - Am guessing he is a good friend of Sanada, since in my observation he and Naoe knew Sanada 's traits much!

Naoe Hanetsugu -  He looks wicked and deceitful after the first look, but he and Ishida was totally concerned when Sanada was told to stay at the Shimijou to answer some questions after the the tea party incident.

At The Tea Party, Sanada was challenged by Date Masamune to a sword fight to where the later quickly accept using his beloved Fan as a weapon even Rokuro firmly objects it.

Though I considered Masamune as a great annoyance, am still up for my before mentioned assumptions that  Masamune, Ana and Saizou has dark past story. 

Date Masamune - The One Eyed Dragon of Oushuu. Also known for his flashy and dashing outlook.

Sanada's last move.. foot grabbed?
The sword was accidentally landed at Tanuki's lap.

Though both Ishida and Naoe keeps criticizing Sanada's dance with the fan move,  both were goofing about Masamune losing in that silly situation.

Worried reactions after Sanada was informed that he need's to answer few questions about the incident.  Both assumes that if Sanada will be placed at Shimijou, there will be no possibility of him to escape, he be given food and water and forced to commit Hara-kiri

And so Sanada is making his great escape: Here's the entourage!.. :)

Can't wait for the next episode!..
