| For some reason, I find the small talk between the Ten Swords kinda entertaining. I guess it's because of the conflicting personalities of their members. Sanosuke took a huge gamble on this mission but I respect his courage. They're not showing what Ten Swords are truly capable of yet but Iwanbō is already a scary guy to deal with. |

| Aoshi is so fucking annoying man get this bum off my screen. Just needlessly making things harder for Kenshin. Take the L and accept it and move on man. It was already gonna be hard enough to take on Shishio as it is, now Kenshin gotta deal with this bum and reveal the new techniques he learned so Shishio will have time to counter them 🤦🏽♂️ Yea the fight animation is dope but it’s so damn pointless! Lmao at Hoji beating tf out of Sano with the roses just to get his ass knocked into next week 😂 😂 Nooo, please tell me the old man didn’t actually die man that was hard to watch. He literally tried to give Goichi and the other guy a chance to turn their lives around and this is how they repay him wtf!? Please tell me Misao and the others are ok.. fire is burning at the temple after that cut to black.. I’m scared Figured Kenshin would have to go all out against Aoshi playing right into Shishio’s hands. Smh. Hope this L was worth the deaths of innocent people, all for your silly pride. |

| Something about the sound felt off this episode, the rest was quite good, lots of cut aways though. |
| Aoshi is so annoying he should have died instead of Hannya. |
| Okay you know what new RuroKen anime, if you're going to have Aoshi and Kenshin to go at it Pirates of the Caribbean style, just have Watsuki write a pirate manga with X-men inspired samurai vs pirates and call it Swash-Swash Buckle-Buckle or something. |
| A good author leaves the audience enough material to be satisfied with, yet yearning for more. |
| I was expecting something like this. Kenshin vs Aoshi was pretty cool, Saito vs Soujiro perhaps and I laughed so much at Sanosuke vs Houji XDD. I hope police chief survives some way. Next ep part 3. |

| Man that cliffhanger kinda cruel ngl. Fire is lit in the midst of Kyoto but when its the end scene, tension lit at the wrong time smh. I don't need blind dude faking his intention to kill those lil girl, she can't be death that fast, right? Well gotta wait more week and see if Sano manage to find the engine room, or he's gonna go to the Zoro route again. |

| Oh man the cliffhangers were brutal in this one, first we had the police chief taking on two of the Ten Swords at once so the injured men could escape, then we had those two foot soldiers of Shishio’s taking on that old cop and young fella, I really hope the old guy survived there. And of course there was also Kenshin busting out one of his ultimate attacks against Aoshi, most likely this will lead in Aoshi taking a rough blow after having the upper hand for a lot of the fight, but it sucks that Shishio will be getting a peek at one of the Kenshin’s best moves before their eventual battle, but perhaps that’ll make it more interesting when it comes. And last but not least was Misao maybe getting stabbed by Usui as a fire finally broke out in Kyoto, I doubt Misao is taking a fatal blow here but damn is it a rough way to end the episode with so many other cliffhangers alongside it, but if anything it’s just gonna make next week’s episode that much more hyped. And oh, also Houji got punched lol, poor guy doesn’t have much else going for him besides his leadership skills, and the last thing I wanted to mention is how cool Kenshin and Aoshi’s fight was, loved how it wasn’t unlike a pirate sword fight on a pirate ship lol, one of the benefits of the Rengoku being the sight of this season’s final battles. |
| Shishio clearly had intel on Sanosuke and is confident in him not finding the way. |
 |
| Let the flames rage on. |
 |
| another great ep many fights, many injuries poor old man Kenshin can not hold back if he wants to win... |

| @Ashhk Kenshin about to get bad ass. |
| A bear hidden in a sheeps clothing huh. Sano's new moves sure is allowing him to infiltrate the ship pretty easily. Kenshin's bout with Aoshi really was impressive. Things in Kyoto sure are taking a turn for the worst though. The trio of Yahiko, Kaoru and Misao sure formed quite the team. Though it would be interesting to see how they fare against Usui. |

| Poor Hoji, he isn't really that bad, just blindly stupid lmao The editors are experts at cutting the best parts lol I hate Aoshi so much, he is so fucking dumb for not just waiting until all of this is over, I hated him back in the og and hate him again here. I hope that old cop doesn't die, I don't remember if he did in the og, it makes me sad :c |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| Very poor execution the entire episode. the fight scenes kept getting cut off to a different scene in Kyoto and for me it failed to get people really deep into either of those scenes. |
| So Aoshi pushed Kenshin to use his technique while Shisho could see it. Anyway, amazing that after seeing the technique once they are able to counteract |
