SADNESS! *bawls*

I didn't see Reflections yet, but Trust and Betrayal...they...they...WAAAAAAHHH!

[SPOILER]
When Battousai was fighting all those people to get to Tomoe...and he was nearly fainting...and he said, "We...will go...to Otsu." Then he was having all those weird flashbacks, and he swung his sword, and saw that Tomoe had sacrificed herself to save his life...and she fell back into his arms and gave him the cross-scar and then died. And then he starts sobbing....

If he hadn't started crying, I don't think I would have either, but...

And it was his fault... *cries*

[spoiler]
I love how Tomoe gives the second scar to him. So much meaning in one little action.

In Italy we have the manga of kenshin(is one of my favourite, I have all the numbers and I've read it all) but the anime and the oav didn't arrive yet. sigh! *_*

Trust & Betreyal is my favourite of the OVA's. its storyline was top notch, was moving, darker than the series, with stunning fight scenes, and explains the back-story to kenshin, i love that OVA.

Does Samurai X take place before or after RuroKen?

Before its the series begining.

It is really cool.

I was going to get Samurai X on DVD, but then I saw that it had a suggested age of 17+. other than the obvious blood shed, why is it rated that?

The beggining and end are extremely violent, though in the middle it's pretty slow.

The gore is mainly for realism, Samurai X is not at all ment to be just a mindless hack and slash bloodfest, there is a very moving and well told story within. Akira Kurosawa fans will love this OVA to death.....
