You can tell Takeru Satoh trained really hard in the sword fighting for this movie. I was as impressed as many of you probably were but there's very little Battojutsu in the movie and it seems more close to Wuxia films, they called him Hitokiri Battousai for a reason. |

It's no less realistic than the OVAs (the decent Trust & Betrayal ones, not the recent crap ones) which were a complete departure from Watsuki's vision and which he pointedly disowned. The series is its own entity now - there hasn't been anything consistent with Watsuki's continuity and spirit since the Kyoto Arc episodes ended.

TWO sequels announced, making this a trilogy.
Kyoto arc and End of legend arc. It's exactly as I imagined it'd be, doing Kyoto in the 2nd film, and likely doing the Jinchuu arc in the last movie, bringing the story to the closure. As for Shishio... well, considering the dude is a wrapped mummy for the most part, I figure the voice acting is the most important part. Since they didn't use Aoshi in the first movie, I wonder if the entire Ninja subplot is going to be omitted. I like them a lot, but in the overall scheme of picture, they really don't play any important role tbh.

Speaking of the actor himself, I watched both Battle Royale films a few months ago. I think he deserves to be approached more often by American productions that come filming in Japan or involving several other Japanese actors. |

I loved him as Okita Souji in the Shinsengumi taiga dorama from 2004 and he was brilliant. Well, actually, a lot of actors in there were awesome |

I imagined a large outflow of vaginal secretions with the announcement of who's playing Shishio.
Right now I just want to know who will be playing Hiko Seijuro and Seta Soujiro. Quote:
And they had better present the fight between Saitou and Kenshin.
