Yeah - i noticed that Ep 22's fight scenes verged a little on the fantasy side, in particular I noticed Shinpachi at least does a front flip and that seems to be well against the economy of motion that i've come to expect from Japanese swordplay.
To be fair i haven't seen Rurouni Kenshin yet(
) but i'm sure i will at some point - it's just not cheap to get the series over here in the UK
