I knew that little kid was going to be a little dick.

I'm kinda for all these old school dudes. I wish Kenshin cared a little more about the changing of the times.

Really enjoyed the episode. It was funny when Sanosuke and Yahiko tried to spy on Kaoru and Megumi XD

The rich kid is always a brat.
Just like the bad guys are always ugly, and the good guy always wins.
This episode is a little formulaic.

best episode for what seems like ages. Not getting much love though...

I thought it actually broke with the RK formula - they're helping someone who's being willingly exploited for once. The villains had the usual backstory, though they had interesting aims.

Lots of funny moments along with a real threat.

I feel kinda sad for those warriors, as they are trapped in an era that have no place or ambition for their kind. On the other hand, you can see that they are from barbarian era. The eras before Meiji weren't nice at all. It make nice movies and games, of course, but people were dying left and right, ruled by ruthless warlords, that couldn't give two shits about their peasants.

Not that the acting's bad, but Yutaro probably has the most miscast dub voice so far. He sounds like a nerdy teenager >_>

Metal Gear Solid basically, the big thunder dude being Big Boss and his underlings being a Fox Hound type band. This was an interesting episode. That kid is not very wise.

The animation may have downgraded but the story continue to perfectly show a nation that have just started to move on to a know lifestyle.

Enjoyed seeing a new location in this one. I've had to cross a wooden rope bridge before. Karou's fear was very relatable. Which takes me to the tonal whiplash in this show sometimes. The mighty swordsman ends up being literally dragged around by a young woman.

The cliffhanger was really abrupt for this one!
