Lol. You can never tell when they are men in some of these series'.

I love how Sano keeps carrying that woman around like luggage.

The finale between Aoshi and Kenshin lived up to it's name. The guilt Kenshin was throwing at Aoshi, and the hits of denial Aoshi was throwing back. In the end Kenshin finally got through to him. Kaiten Kenbu Rokuren VS Amakakeru Ryu No Hirameki was amazingly done too. The last moment with Aoshi laying as the crew leaves... it was deep.

"He kept his promise, now it's my turn to answer". One of my favourite moments, especially because who doesn't want Aoshi as an ally!?

That "trap" scene at the end, lol!

Anyway, looks like Yahiko's in trouble. They should at least give him a more reliable weapon if it's life or death.

Oh goooosh rofl, the entire scene with Kamatari hitting on Yahiko was amazing. Kamatari is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters in the series. I feel like trans people would throw a fit at the "there's no way a man could become a woman" dialog, pfff. Although Kamatari might be proof of the opposite - damn he's beautiful.

I grinned widely at the final scene with Aoshi. Deep and compelling, Aoshi is truly one of the greatest characters in the cast.

Sano thought it'd be okay to not try and stop her sending Sishio notes about the fight until the very end of the fight? That's dumb.

Also, more fun with the guy who acts-looks like a lady! It was definitely a fun conversation. I loved it.

I got caught in that trap..I thought they kind of hinted at it in a previous episode. Poor Yahiko, I wonder how he will get through this fight with the bird-man??

Oh boy, poor Yahiko. Dat moment when you realise you called a man ''sexy''... It stick on you forever.

They really are in deep trouble. Even if the police come, what can they even do? They looked defenceless the last time they had a clash.

It crack me up how Sanosuke carry that girl all around. He doesn't give a single fuck.

As I'm watching the MediaBlasters dub, I just gotta say: Who the heck messed with Soujirou's voice? Not cool man, his voice was so cute.

Oh, and great ep as always. ^^ Lol @ the end. XD

I think it was kinda obvious he was a man. This is hinted earlier.
Now on to Yahiko action.

Yeah I also noticed in the past couple episodes that Soujirou's voice changed in the English dub I was watching. His previous voice was much better acted.

Not only did Yahiko consider the scythe-wielder sexy...but considered them sexier than both Misao and Kaoru xD Poor boy is never going to live that down :P Can't deny that they're rocking the look though.

While it was good that Kenshin's attack couldn't be fully analysed by Yumi, you have to hand it to Sano's obliviousness to wait untill the very end to realise she'd snuck off. Even though it's fair information tactics, it also shows Shishio's hypocrisy. Puts on all that ego and acts like he can easily beat Kenshin, yet has been shying away from a fight since the start and trying to get a heads up on his fighting techniques since even before Kenshin learned the remaining attacks of Hiten Mitsurugi.

The first half was great but the second half was lame.
