Basilisk
Hyouma was robbed
| This dude who has been blind for most of his life is beaten by an Iga loser who has only been blind for 5 minutes? COME ON. Very shoddy writing and an anticlimactic end to a seriously cool character. I could watch an entire anime about Hyouma, just walking up and down a mountain. |
"I'm starting to think mal is run by Xinil generating electricity on a bicycle." - idklol |
| Shut up. D:< Hyouma sucked. Period. Even if he wasn't blind. If Hyouma was really a badass ninja then he wouldn't have gotten his ass kicked so bad. ;o @Below- And I'm supposed to care? |

| Wow, what a mature reply. There's go any chance of Cihan and I taking you seriously. x_x But yeah, I did feel disappointed that Hyouma got killed by Koshirou. I thought that Hyouma was going to be tricked by Tenzen instead. Well, I've only read the manga so far; only halfway through the anime, so things might change... ...it's GONZO! Things have to change! You know what would be better? An anime all about Saemon. ^_^ |
| Hyouma's death was pretty lame, but I also found the ending to Basilisk just as lame (if not more so). Cihan said: I could watch an entire anime about Hyouma, just walking up and down a mountain. hell yea. |
| I agree that Hyouma died in a pretty stupid way (I mean the way he was killed; not the way he actually died -- FFS! He was standing! \m/). The way I see it, he could kill anyone; he'd just have to open his eyes. Not sure about the manga but in the anime he had so little character development (although quite a bit compared to other characters) that it really didn't make sense to keep him alive for much longer. Too bad, really. Hyouma is awesome. PS: I read somewhere (can't remember where) that he's not really blind. He just chooses to live as a blind man because it's too dangerous to open his eyes. But then again, since I can't remember the source of this, it may be bs. PPS: Hyouma ftw |

| Ah, more replies! :D The thing is, I dont have a problem with the concept of him dying, or even dying standing, I just refuse to believe he would be beaten by another blind man, and a man who hasnt even been blind for very long. I just felt cheated. Overall I wasnt too impressed with the anime, but the ending was the only logical outcome really. I mean it was even advertised as a samurai version of Romeo & Juliet, so honestly what did people expect? Honestly...I expected Hyouma to kill everyone in Japan, that's what!!! |

Screw it, I'm making a Saemon thread. |
| Well yeah, Hyouma seemed to just die too easily. |
| People complain that he died fighting against a character who had just turned blind, but the ironic thing is that Hyouma only lost to Koshirou precisely because Koshirou was blind, so his yellow eye power didn't work like it would if Koshirou could see. So I don't think there was a better way for him to die. |
