Summary:
The Northern Yagyu were driven out of Japan into Siberia by the Yagyu Edo. After living several years in Siberia, they changed their name to the Yagyu Siberian. The leader of the Yagyu Edo sent Yagyu Jubei to assassinate Ressai Kita , the head of the Siberian clan. Jubei did not wish to carry out the order, but traveled to Siberia anyway. During his time there, he fell in love and had a daughter named Freesia. Some time later he caught up with Ressai Kita, the leader he had been sent to assassinate. Over Jubei's objections, Ressai Kita provoked a duel between the two while on a frozen body of water. In the heat of the battle, Ressai Kita broke through the ice, drowning Yagyu Jubei's wife and daughter along with him. Freesia remained frozen in a glacier for 300 years, until global warming caused enough of the glacier to melt to free her. Freesia then learns of the Lovely Eyepatch that her father left to his successor. Freesia is furious when she learns that the Lovely Eyepatch was not left to her, but rather Nanohana Jiyu. Determined to claim the Lovely Eyepatch as the daughter of Yagyu Jubei, she tracks down Nanohana Jiyu, intent on defeating Jiyu and making her suffer. At the same time, the Yagyu Siberian learn of the appearance of Yagyu Jubei the Second and track down Nanohana Jiyu in an attempt to satisfy their 300-year-old grudge against Yagyu Jubei. What ensues is a three way battle between the Siberian Yagyu, Freesia Yagyu and Yagyu Jubei's successor, Jiyu Nanohana. Jiyu does not want the responsibility and she's afraid to lose herself for power while Freesia does not understand anyone who is not willing to have more power.

Personal ratings: 3.5
This season was much better as compared to season one. It's probably because the fighting scenes were much nicer, and longer. What irritated me in the show was the constant appearance of 4 stupid (no offence) characters. They keep putting in comedy parts which aren't even funny (or at least to me it was not.) Really destroyed the whole mood of seriousness. However, when it came towards the last few episodes, it was all seriousness. Really loved that part :3
I do think that this show is abit confusing with all the relationships to 300 years ago. Like there was this child that was from 300 years ago, and he appeared in Jiyu's time? By the time the show ended, i still could not understand how he could have survived for 300 years and then disappeared. This show was not good enough to answer my every question i had for it by the time it ended. But the fighting scenes are just to good to be ignored. Really loved this anime.
Art ratings: 3
Because it's from a long time ago (2004) the drawings don't quite match the current style that i like. In other words, it's old fashioned. But if you considered it, other then the weird way they draw a young female body, it was all quite nice.
