AniWorthSengoku Collection
Introduction
Sengoku Collection revolves around many samurai who are accidentally removed from a parallel universe inhabited by well-known historic characters. Unlike the historical war period known to us, all inhabitants in this unique world look like high school girls. Coming from the medieval era and finding themselves totally amazed by everything they encounter in modern day Tokyo, the girls become best friends through their adventures.

Sengoku Collection is a series of mostly unrelated short stories about samurai from another world wreaking havoc in this one. They do this not by fighting, but by being extremely eccentric.
Each episode focuses on one character who is usually not seen again after that, but they are all complete stories, so this is not really an issue.
There is an overarching plot, but it's sort of in the background for the most part.
Sengoku collection is full of yuri, so steer clear if you don't like that. Otherwise, it's a beautiful, if strange show, and I highly recommend it.

The posted plot synopsis from Crunchyroll is way off the mark really, first off their ages range from 4 to probably 30 and calling it some kind of friendship development story is stretching it halfway to the moon.
What you can expect is a ton of females designed to appeal to every fairly common taste so everyone has something to look forward to, then they mostly get an episode each to do something amusing relating to their personalities and Oda Nobunaga shows up and defeats them in some entertaining manner. There is very little real violence going on, the selling point of the show is the comedy, which is nothing impressive but at least I giggled pretty frequently through the whole season.
The art is all over the place with some characters looking like those horrid 2005 anime characters a…

The Daily Lives of Sengoku Girls
Sengoku Collection is an anime by in large, slice of life genred with a jack all of genres but master of none approach to it's plot structure. Sengoku Collection goes through MANY genre changes depending on the Sengoku girl that it's focusing on the episode, whether it be shounen, mystery, "horror", shoujo ai, idol, sci-fi and even space adventure, however how they present and execute it is rather lackluster and is only means to give the Sengoku girl at hand something to do.
In terms of characters, considering the HUGE cast, almost 3/4's of the cast get at best one episode tops for thier episode focus, the only characters that matter in terms of a narrative focus for LA at least were Oda Nobunaga voiced by Rumi Ookubo (Oda Nobunaga coming into other chara…

Despite some decent sales and a large number of fan art in pixiv of Sengoku Collection, this little show has gone relatively unnoticed. Practically no advertisement, unappealing art, and other shows taking the spotlight and it isn't too much of a surprise. That said I'd still like to make a decent review for people who might want to try it out.
The show is overall mediocre. One of the main problems of Sengoku Collection is that it lacks any appealing or interesting plot. Sengoku warlords come to our world; they live their lives, some wish to stay while others want go back to the old world, like Oda Nobunaga. A good concept lies here but it is not executed well. Each episode is centers around a Sengoku-period warlord and each episode deals with said character's problem and how they cope wi…
