Hey guys, I need a capture of the scene in Samurai X: Trust and Betrayal when the one younger samurai charges Kenshin and we see his point of view (with his katana protruding into the shot). It's the fight where Kenshin gets the first half of his scar, yadda yadda. Can you tell I've never actually seen the movie?

So basically I need a high-res screen grab of a katana in first-person view. It doesn't have to be from Samurai X if you have a different pic lurking on your hard drive that would be perfect, it's just that through music videos I've seen that shot several times and thought it would work well. Can anyone find/create this picture for me? I need it badly.

Thanks in advance!

The scene I'm talking about is at 1:04 in this music video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wiY4hH6Bfb4 The precise angle is *just* before this shot.

But like I said, feel free to suggest anything else that you think is better. What I'm trying to do is clip the hand/arm/sword out of the shot to use on a book cover. So whatever works best.

Will this work?

It's a very dark scene...and the picture moves a lot..^^; I wish I couldv'e done better...

Well, it's a start. You're right that it's reeeally dark - I can't really see the arm in order to clip it out. I guess I should start looking for a different scene from some other (brighter) anime. But thanks for the effort, Ronin. I appreciate it!

And in fact, if you're up for another go-round, how about the shot right after Mr. Shigekura gets lopped in half and the 'young samurai' I was mentioning just avoids getting beheaded. It's a similar shot, right after Kenshin looks all evil. That would be much easier to clip.

I will have to try again on sunday...^^; the computer I am on is kinda old, and I just got it fixed... I don't want to hurt it..

Hey, no rush!
