(Average+) Oda Cinnamon Nobunaga

Series in one sentence:
Humans will get a second chance at life if they're mean enough, so go become a mass murderer with multiple wives.


Series in more sentences:

A handful of Japanese warlords from old times meet up with each other in the present, reincarnated as dogs. Slaves of their new bodies, they rediscover the world and deal with their lives as the loved pets of women. 



This could've been a whole lot better. 

I don't see the point of humans reincarnating into dogs if they only talk about their past lives in their minds, while having very little control over their dog body and brain.
The characters are shown to be instinct-driven animals, but at the same time, are less aggressive than their human selves were. Why are these warlords, who (used to) have a deep hatred for each other, calmly sitting around in the dog park and chatting it up with each other? They should be digging their teeth in each other's throat like rabid wolves. The warlord aspect really falls flat.

An episode exists out of a series of short stories, in chronological order, and too many of these are too short to bring any kind of joke or point across. It would've been better if these were full, proper episodes.
Reoccurring storylines take too long to progress, and the payout is.. none. There's no conclusion to any of it, because I think they want to animate a second season.

Out of everything this series showed me, the last few minutes of the last episode were the most interesting.
