Synopsis:
Set in a reimagined late 19th century Japan, *Hakuouki* explores a world where historical figures, known as Shinsengumi, exist as beings bound to protect a young woman named Touka. The narrative centers on a young man who becomes entangled with these enigmatic protectors, navigating a society steeped in tradition and burdened by unseen forces.
The story delves into themes of duty, mortality, and the complexities of human connection within a fantastical framework. Character interactions are central, highlighting the emotional weight carried by those tasked with safeguarding their charge. The atmosphere blends historical aesthetics with supernatural elements, creating a contemplative experience that emphasizes character development over action-driven plotlines. These short works offer glimpses into a world where the boundaries between life and afterlife blur, prompting reflection on sacrifice and the nature of protection.

I found the episodes on YouTube with english subs and the episodes are not very long but they really funny! ♥ How Chizuru goes to an all boys school and some of the characters are students and others are the teachers. ♥ Characters like Hijikata are like the teachers trying to stop to stop the others and trying to discipline them but instead he breaks the rules lol!- Overall it's pretty funny to watch and its short so you can simply watch it on YouTube if you search Hakuoki SSL! - nnAlso when you search Hakuouki SSL you can also find a drama version that is longer and get to see more of the characters I watch a bit of that one and it's pretty funny as well so you do like the OVA maybe you could watch that after if your interested.
