The bite was certainly surprising if, with hindsight, rather apt for the social Darwinian villain. Hopefully the pattern of this much awaited fight will make a departure from the approved shonen standard.

I don't know why, but I cracked up laughing when Shishio bit Kenshin...

And also, the kiss was amazing <3 I love a bad guy who's romantic xD

A lot of it was just flashbacks and buildup, but I agree with the kiss being great, and it was cool seeing Shioshio's weapon.

Wew, when Shishio kissed that maiden of his, I got this uneasy feeling as if he was gonna kill her or something, but I was wrong, he's a hopeless romantic, heh.

Also, dat bite.

LOL. Haha, that bite was pretty gross, Shishio...

And it's nice that he kissed his lady, is he a villain that actually really likes his girl?

He was taking his prey analogy a bit too far there when he starting munching on Kenshin..

half is recap of another recap. But great kiss.
Samurais use swords... but biting just savage.

First half was unnecessary recap but Shishio biting Kenshin will definitely go down as one of the more memorable moments in this series. When he was explaining why his sword catches fire I was waiting for him to say he had covered it in petroleum but the stuff about human oils damn this guy is messed up.

Hahahahah he actually fucking bit Kenshin! The first half of the episode was unnecessary, but ending on a bite was worth it.
