VP-Master Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 I just went to google images and searched zanbatou and got this. At first, I wasn't sure if it really was a zanbatou but then I asked someone who knows a lot more about Japanese swords than I do and told that's indeed a real Zanbatou. Still unsure why Noshuribo Watsuki would use the same name for a completely different type of sword though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy_phenil Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 its a real sword, probably not that big ofcourse, it was a popular weapon among women, used for disemboweling horses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest animefangirl Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 erm...don't some mideval (sp?) swords weigh 20-30 pounds? the voice actor who did spike also did someone else in the series. i forget who though. (mainly because i forget to remember names O.o) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VP-Master Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 I don't know about that but Japanese and Euopean swords are quite different. I wouldn't be surprised if you're right but I'm yet to see such a heavy sword in Japanese history. Their built to be relatively lightweight.

Darkness Ruler Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 o.o Uncut versions are always better... Then again, Kenshin's dubbed voice is pretty sweet...and about the swords? The best kind is the Japanese, trust me. European swords are all like, crappy and stuff, I've seen 'em in an armory. [color=hotpink][size=1]Please do not double post. I have put your two posts together. Next time, please just edit your first. Thank you. *QA*[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 So did anyone notice the voice actor who played faye is also the person playing the voice of the woman at shishio's side? Also, did anyone notice the changes of artistic style during yesterdays episode? Kenshin went into a rage and during that time he started screaming loudly and he was drawn in a style that showed large white eyes with no pupils. That was sorta a suprise, but I liked seeing him get all pissed off like that. Its sweet when kenshin losses himself and reverts to unrestrained use of his true power. Anyway... back when ever I get to catch another episode... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WW2 Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 Yeah that scene where Kenshin loses it against Chou is pretty cool. But [spoiler]I'm afraid to say that this is the last time he reverts back to the Battousai.[/spoiler] Oh and Sejuro Hiko kicks so much a** that its not funny.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy_phenil Posted June 25, 2003 Share Posted June 25, 2003 his eyes usually turn yellow. i dunno if i have my facts straight, but isn't faye also yahiko? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerocrisis Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 Hey does anyone know like where i could get a sword , cuz that would be so kool although i would probably have trouble getting it through customs if im shipping it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS5 Gogeta Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 Kenshin finally was able to beat the man slayer inside of him because his master stated it himself that Kenshin couldn't beat him if he reverted back into the man slayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy_phenil Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 kinda sucks for kenshin having to worry about kaoru and such, just a bit comprimising... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youko Minamino Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Yay!!! :D Its Kamatari! Kamatari is here! The wannabe female, but can't be a female if you want to be near Shishio, but Shishio doesn't like males, character of RK. My favorite!!! :ball: go!!! I caught a Bishoujo. Or is he a Bishounen?

kiddy_phenil Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 sounds to me like she's still working in the red light district if she likes shishio, god knows its not for his good looks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] I don't know why she is all puppy dog like with him because I think he is ugly and it is an eyesore every time I look at him. At least Aoshi is looks cool (compared to all the other bad guys) Probably she is just pretending to like him so that she has a permanent roof over her head along with food in her belly, or she is madly in love, who knows.

WW2 Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 Yumi fell in love with Shishio because of his mind. Its like what they say, its whats on the inside that counts. This becomes apparent later on in the final showdown with Shishio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy_phenil Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 for his mind? hm.. have to watch further on (missin about the last two dvd's and up from what they showin on tv, i'm so *ahem* frugal....) i dunno, i woulda never seen her for that type, at this point i don't think shishio does either, as he's been saying, a girl will still love you so long as you have power..

Japan Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 You guys, this is REALLY IMPORTANT!!!!! I just received this from the website of [url]www.tvtome.com.[/url] They say that Rurouni Kenshin will no longer air after tomorrow. Oh I hope that's not true. Rurouni Kenshin is the only thing practically worth watching on Toonami. CN is probably taking it off, if this fact is true, because it is too violent or something. I dunno, what do you guys think? [B][I]June 28, 2003 Kenshin will be relinquishing its 6:30 timeslot to Yu Yu Hakusho after July 4th. No news yet on when it'll come back.[/I][/B] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WW2 Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Aw that sucks. They can't stop showing RK now, they're about to get to the showdown with Shishio! Sure the fights that follow are pretty violent, but they're some of the best ever animated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japan Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 What I don't get...*points to Justice League* why Justice League is on Toonami. It is just a remake of 1960's American cartoons and comics. It isn't an anime. I think that they should put YuYu Hakusho back on the 5 PM timeslot and never touch RK. (if the news that I found above are true) You never know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its an animation block, therefore they will show more than just anime. There reason Justice League is on is to promote there new season. I also hate the fact that RK is going weekly on SVES. I suppose the reason is, is to get more viewers who watch RK on Toonami to watch it on SVES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
