Yep, she's in another castle.

And the ogre has not returned yet? Better step up, ye of at-will size-changing!

This episode isn't particularly bad or anything but I find myself lacking patience for it. We were finally getting into the climatic fight between Kenshiro and Raoh and it just pulled the rug out from under that. After ramping up to that I'm just not very interested in the backstory of a character like Fudo.

The timeline is really confused here. The various flashbacks we've seen throughout the series add up to the nuclear war being very recent (as little sense as that makes).
Yuria was an adult when the war happened yet we see a flashback of Fudo encountering a young Yuria in a dirty, low-technology village with people wearing very simple clothing, none of which makes much sense before the war.

This series puts very little effort into the post-apocalypse thing. Often it seems rather to be a generic fantasy world (except with lots of motorcycles).

Wait, so Fudo was that big BEFORE the nuclear apocalypse? Does that mean that all these huge people we've seen in the show were always like this and not because of some sort of mutation? lol okay.

This is turning into a rather dark post-apocalyptic Mario game.

The flashback of Fudo and Yuria was really well made all things considered,so simple yet so very effective.
I sometimes watch chinese cartoons/stuff and share unsolicited opinions.

And the world before the nuclear attack must have been pretty fucked up considering that all the killing going on and why where these deadly martial art's even allowed? It doesn't sound like it was really a secret art.

Man. I was going to make Mario joke too.

Really liked the flashback of Fudo and how he changed for the better.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Kenshiro casually jogging in Fudo's direction was very funny.

Young Yuria responsible for sudden change of Fudo, hmm. Not sure if this little encounter with dogs can really explain this big change in a personality, because it's like he changed 100%. And Yuria really knows everyone...
The crossing line that Raoh did is interesting, if he steps behind it his man should shoot arrows at him. Will this really happen or not I am wondering.
The last part was a bit strange, first Raoh is stuck in Fudos chest, then all of a sudden he still pulls one arm out and punches him...
Will Kenshiro again be Fudos savior at the last second like before?

Fudo was evil back then and he changed with the help of (obviously again) Yuria, she is really everywhere and she knows everyone wtf.
Fudo is fighting Raoh, don't die Fudo.
Good episode.

To think the kind hearted Fudo was once known as the Demon Fudo, Yulia really changed his life for the better

Right LOL. The show should’ve just made her an actual divine goddess for fucks sake smh. Show can try to hype Yuria all it wants but she’s really just a damsel in distress. She’ll always pale in comparison to best girl Mamiya.

Could not agree more.

If she is so divine and powerful, why are so many other characters dying while trying to save her.

They should pick one side and stick to it.

The timeline of this show makes absolutely zero sense!! How can Yuria be a little girl after WW III? When we've seen several flashbacks from before the war were she's an adult?!! WTF?!

And this is not the first instance where the timeline doesn't had up!

Like the Raoh flashback on this episode of Fudo stealing food from the Dojo, it felt like it was it took place after WW III but how? When we have seen Ken and the others, Toki etc, as adults when WW III hits!

So, I see that they are going down the route of Fudo having "Demon" blood has an excuse to justify the complete and total absurdity of some of the body sizes & height & weight of several characters we've seen on the series? Oh okay .... Bullsh!t.

This is a series that needs to be buried and forgotten for real & good.
