One of the really interesting pieces of this arc in the show is that we are actually seeing quite a bit more of the Tokyo Blade play than we did in the manga. Up until these past couple episodes, I hadn't realized just how extremely generic of a battle shounen Tokyo Blade is. This is basically just a rehash of a sequence of battles that we have seen tons of places before (saving Sasuke in Naruto, confronting Shishio in Rurouni Kenshin, etc.). So, the way the actual play has unfolded is, to a large degree, anime original. Abiko-sensei should really step up the originality in her next work...
