I find myself disappointed with Seijuro's death, or maybe it's more accurate to say my expectations were subverted here. From the get-go, it seemed like Seijuro was being hyped up as a worthy opponent, someone who would be able to put up a good fight against Musashi. Their actual battle, on the other hand, was somewhat anticlimactic and way too short-lived. Anyway, it's a shame he was only around for such a short time. He was pretty cool.

In any case, I guess this shows how much Musashi has grown as a swordsman.

Shit he actually died in the end. Though it was a rather quick death.

That was totally unexpected, honestly. I thought he would be more important than that.

So musashi is not a human. Well that was easy for Musashi.

Damn........
What a tragic chapter....I can understand some of you saying it was too short, but I think it was done beautifully. I think the last two chapters really made me rethink Seijuros character in a good way!
As for Denshichiro.....I feel for him, I mean seeing your brother literally be cut in half suddenly...
As for Musashi, I think this event might make him reconsider his way of the sword....
.....I think the 70 men battle is incoming!

The fact that Seijuro died so soon subverted my expectations in a good way. I like the quick kill with multiple angles in the panelization and backstory presenting what took place in milliseconds. Also makes the arc that much more appealing of what could be coming next considering Kojiro is in Kyoto too.

Musashi slicing Seijuro in half was impressive, goes to show how much he's really grown.

HOLY shit. Seijuro became the bisected one so quickly, sometimes I forget how short sword-fights can get. Lethal as fuck. Hesitation is defeat, and Seijuro happened to hesitate for a single second


Denshichiro crying for his brother :( "and then...and then what, brother.."

Its just even sadder because im assuming Seijuro definitely tried to kill Musashi because he knew dens wouldnt stand a chance against him...he was just trying to protect his lil brother
