I forgot that Suzuka uses a wooden sword.

I wonder who'd win in a (non-lethal) battle between her and Kenshin...

I like how Gene added in more stuff after learning how big a deal Suzuka is. tongue

Smart man he is. [lol]

[up] Could Kenshin swing a hole into the ceiling?

I imagine that Kenshin would defeat Suzuka and then Defeat Means Friendship would come into play. waii

@ slim: ... Maybe? tongue

Silly crossover headcanon says she's Kenshin and Kaoru's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great... great-granddaughter given the wooden sword and Implausible Fencing Powers, so it's all moot in my mind.

A justification for the sword block!

Yep, I'm still here.

Defeat by Modesty: One of the oldest tricks in the book.

[up] Yeah, Gene using the Light Shields to perform a blade catch was pretty cool.

[down] True, but Suzuka has enough strength and skill to slice through a truck with that thing, so Gene was taking the necessary precautions. tongue

[up] When you chose to wear such fancy clothes in this occupation then you should expect this situation to happen.

She should really just suck it up. tongue

[up][up] It is a wooden sword though. Still cool heheh.

Another good night for Toonami, I'd say. See you all next week, along with the return of Iron-Blooded Orphans. smile

Honestly Suzuka reminds me more of Goemon.

Would it be like in World of Warcraft, where if two healing classes who are especially good at what they do duel each other and keep on healing, it could potentially last forever? XD

That's Toonami, and that is it for us today, and I will leave you with Sting, and a cut off his new album. Take it away.

That's right, boys. Mondo cool.

Well that was a subtle bit of foreshadowing. Fey didn't learn about hyperspace physics in highschool because she's actually from the 20th century.

And that's it for me, see you all next week for the glorious return of Iron Blooded Orphans!

[up][up][up] Kenshin's greatest weakness is that he lacks the stamina necessary to use the Hiten Mitsurugi style properly. He's constantly injuring himself by using it, and will eventually be unable to fight at all.

And this.

Ladies and gentlemen.

Is why you should never pick up a show for your cable network block purely because it got the most votes on a small online poll.

If it was a better adaptation, probably.

I forgot to comment on that episode of Lupin ahead of time! I must say, that's my favorite episode of the whole season due to how character-driven it is by Lupin and Zenigata. Fun fact, it's an adaption of a manga Lupin storyline.

Anyway, as a consequence as everything that's happened in the previous few episodes, Lupin is now broke! Well, when a thief doesn't have any money, there's only one thing to do...

The next stage of the serial arc is going to pick up at the end of this episode.

Improving as an author, one video at a time.

Yeah that Lupin III ep was smething else. Classic mind games, just purely character driven. And I love how the two actors got to really show their copes here!

I know Mageta probably said something like "ratchet, hiss", but I like to imagine he called Vegeta "retched piss".
