Welcome to Gaia! ::

I just saw it for the first time yesterday. It's nice to finally find out how he gets his cross shaped scar. I can't help but to feel sorry for Kenshin... what a terrible past. ninja

I saw Tsuiokuhen about three or four years ago. Unfortunately, I only saw the later part, but it was still very intense. I hope to get it on DVD one of these days.

Yeah,it was pretty sad.
But I'm suprised I didn't cry ^^; [at cried on Reflection though]

I finally got Tsuiokuhen on DVD and must say it's really cool in its own rite. It has enough of a story and characters to actually stand as its own story without the rest of the manga/anime ever needing to be told. Just watch this guy fade off into the distance and wonder what happened to him. Of course, if you want to know, you read the manga.

The only thing I didn't like was how they turned Kenshin into this simpering emo kid in the Kekkai Mori and had him just get beaten on by the Yaminobu. I prefer the manga version where he's beating right back on them and dismembering them. twisted

I also didn't like how they reduced Enishi from an active participant in the goings on to an onlooker only.

Both versions of Tomoe's death were so very sad and moving.

The movie was great yeah, but the Manga........is Sex.

Tsuiokuhen is gorgeous and amazing in its own right, but I prefer the manga rendition... little things (like Kenshin showing up at the Ikeda-ya affair, people being able to smell Tomoe's perfume from 10+ yards away) that don't make sense just rub me the wrong way.
