@knocturnalzen10

who's?

Who are you referring to?

anyways...looking forward to this but saddened that it looks like the final fight(s) will be on the boat like the new anime and not at Shishio's final platform like the classic series.

If they wanted to punch out a fourth that focuses on the battousai day...I would not be opposed to this.

Stop...stop taunting us with movies we can't see because we don't live in Japan and are too stupid to watch on pirate sites. :(

Ive seen Kyoto Inferno just today
Fight scenes are still superb!
They made the transition from manga and anime to live action very impressive
cant wait for him to face off w/ the Ten swords (juppon gatana) and Shishio himself!

@knocturnalzen10

yeah was afraid you were talking about that...

Forget that mess since it's garbage and the creator, Nobuhiro Watsuki, has publicly disavowed it and if you actually go read the liner notes of the manga would have preferred (at best) that Kenshin and Kaoru's son (Kenji) fight for the sakabato against Yahiko and Subame's (the waitress from the restaurant)kid.

I'd give a reference page number but all my manga are the French editions (I live in Quebec) and would be useless.

Even the idea that Kenji was a bit off was completely something the anime house made up since the most he was portrayed as in the manga was just being a mama's boy.

Consider the second OAV akin to DragonBall GT if that helps.

OMG x10

This is gonna be one of the best movie trilogies ever!

The first one was such an accomplishment and this year's duo is likely to surpass it!
