EP 34:
they just killed my favorite character :puppydog:

Spoiler — click to reveal

Akaneya Genzo.
He was cool, scary and and had humor at the same time.
He also did over-enunciate every word - my hero! awesome for learning japanese. :mrgreen:

Although there's still hope, being a ninja, he might rise again or have a twin or clone... :beaten:

^ Did they really kill him off? :headscratch:

well, he was put on a cross and pierced in the ribs with spears... :sweat:
that usually doesn't look very promissing...

could it be that's because otsu wasn't in it? :beaten:

Most likely. :mrgreen:

After they stabbed him, he kept shouting "Fuma Kotaro" and flower petals flowed out of his mouth. Sound familiar yet?

The ninja were easily the weakest and worst part of the Taiga. Apparently the Japanese hold an even greater mystical fascination about them than an 80's Golan-Globus movie.

Eh? "There is no spoon"?
Guess it means they'll use a lot of slowmotion then... I'll find out tonight :mrgreen:

"There is no spoon?" :headscratch:

Just a quote from the first movie (which is awsome, the sequels are lame...) as I didn't know why you mentioned "the matrix" - coz I'll be finding out later ;)

sorry, haven't slept much tonight... :bonk:
but if you google that line you'll imediately see the scene better than I can point to it ;)

Ah, okay... I remember that scene, but not the line. :beaten:

Neo repeats that line later, when cutting the cable that will send the elevator doing that nice explosion in the lobby :mrgreen:

But back to Musashi... the fight was disappointing.

Luckily I didn't happen to blink or I would have missed it - including [not]AMAZING[/not] matrix effect and all.
So another one bites the dust... (I miss a Freddie Mercury smiley...)
I bet at the end, "old crow" Osugi will be the only one left standing...

In the other versions, I've seen the fight isn't much, either: Musashi took care of Kojiro pretty quickly and decisively.

But I was rooting for Kojiro... :rolleyes:

LOL.

There's a bet you'd lose every time. :mrgreen:

BTW, there are several movies dedicated to Kojiro: Sasaki Kojiro, Sasaki Kojiro: Parts 1 and 2, and Sohen Sasaki Kojiro. :)
