Summary: Win me over all the rest of animes I used to love!!
Review: Every emotion is blended here, if you put an effort to watch it every detail. I watched twice thoroughly, plus another for just being simply addicted to it after the first two.
The story is very deep, mixing lots and lots of japanese history. But don't worry it won't be boring as it sounds. The music is very good, making your eyes opened wide or relaxed easily. I just pointed out something here, 'cos other reviewers have done great jobs already. I'm here just to deliberate my feeling after watching all of the four dvds.. just yesterday!

Also good news here, Sony JP announced it is making 3 more volumes this year. So by next year, we in the usa may be able to grap them all! Yep! Keep' em coming

Summary: great plot
Review: Good episodes, I love the fighting scences. Look like something
from Star War. The art at the end was "Wow". Hopefully this is not the last volume.
The title was odd "Tragic Love", I didn't notice any tragic relationship. Some part in this episode need to be clarified.

Summary: Honoo no Blaze!! ^^
Review: I loved this conclusion to what I do believe (if I remember correctly) was the first season of "Mirage of Blaze". The show IS based on a yaoi manga, so hopefully, the next thirteen episodes will develop more on the confused love between Takaya and Naoe. I think that there were twenty-six episodes in all.

The artwork was amazing, as were the voice actors (if anyone took notice, Naoe's voice actor, Hayami Shou, played Muraki in "Yami no Matsuei", as did Takaya's seiyuu, Seki Toshihiko (Watari-sensei). HOWEVER, I recommend you stick with the Japanese language... the english voice actors SUCKED. ::shudders::

But, for the shounen-ai/yaoi fan, Mirage of Blaze (Honoo no Blaze) is a great show... it moves a bit fast, and a new character is introduced almost every episode and is not given closure (hopefully, this means they'll be releasing the next thirteen episodes), but the story is solid and the characterizations are portrayed well.

Highly Recommended!!

Summary: Wow!
Review: MIrage of Blaze is a beautifully animated, beautifully voice acted (Japanese ver.)
and beautifully told story. Based on a 40 vol. novel series wich introduces itself as a historical fiction/supernatural/fantasy/romance/drama it is very complex and full of a LOT of historical references that the average viewer may not understand without a little bit of research. But it's fully worth the extra effort.
This DVD finishes it's current story arc but due to the complexity of it, doesn't tie off Naoe and Takaya/Kagetora's love/hate/obsessive relationship, although it does reveal important back story which explains a lot about it, and reveals the depths of Naoe's obsession. Overall I greatly enjoyed this DVD.
Although this is the end of the TV series, apparently an OAV is in the works that will hopefully be brough to the USA soon.
