| One really good arc, they could have finished the whole anime with this arc. Hope that there will be something else too in the following episodes and not just... |
 |
| I really loved this episode. Shishio in hell was amazing. |
| First and foremost... SAITOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They tied it up nicely, - Anji (who gives me Regal Bryant vibes) willingly went to prison for 25 years. So deep. - Soujiro has become a wanderer like Kenshin and I'm really happy for him to be genuinely smiling :) - Fuji is working with the Military - Saizouchi is negotiating for the Meji Government from now on - Kamatari is a male/female exchange student spy LOL, and will live to spread Shishio's legacy - Chou and Henya are both Government spies - Usui is long dead - Iwanbou is harmless, so left alone and lastly... - Shishio, Yumi and Houji are conquering Hell...? LOL -- All in all, this was an excellent wrap up episode of the arc and as usual Kenshin's words/idealism at the end there finalized everything. It was a good feeling to see them all together again taking a walk (Even Megumi showed up to treat Kenshin). It's the small things like these that are so cherish-able :) What an experience, I'm glad I got to feel it again in anime form. I'll head to re-watch the Tsuiokuhen OVAs and then re-read the flashback and Jinchu/Enishi arcs in the manga as soon as Fillers start. I still have no idea why they haven't animated that yet... it was technically the most important arc. But, before that... on to the next episode! (last before filler) |

| Shishio taking on Hell spin off when? |
 |
Makoto Shishio and Yumi Komagata, and the Juppongatana. Even if their names don't make it into history, they will always remain engraved in my heart, and perhaps you'd pass that along when you visit Hoji Sadojima's grave. I love Kenshin, omg. There's NO man in the world who beckons respect the way he does. That entire line was so touching, I just... just... ack. And what he told Yahiko: "If you're saying that the one who wins is right, then you'd be the same as Makoto Shishio." Unbelievable, just unbelievable. That entire speech of his was amazing. I simply cannot overstate how happy I am they took this route with Shishio and the Juppongatana. "Even though we are the ones who won in the end, everything you just said makes it hard to tell which side was right." Amen! The scene with Soujiro finalizing the arc makes a fantastic ending perfect. I know this is pretty much the end and the series onwards is just filler, but I really hope to see these guys yet again. I've come to really like the Juppongatana. On a side note, I really like Chou. He's a cool bro and his voice acting in the dub is simply hilarious. Also, I highly doubt Saitou is truly dead, but I confess that Sanosuke's reaction to Saitou's "sacrifice" was truly meaningful... especially if we consider the events of how Sanosuke and Saitou met each other. |

| This was a great way to wrap things up. Also, holy shit, like others have said, Shishio in hell was awesome. I feel like that could make a pretty kickass spin-off OVA. |

| Shishio taking over hell would be amazing, though Hell is like Shishio's own little heaven. |

Basically agreeing with everything this person said. XD Sou-kun... ;w; I so glad he'll have a happy ending. Anji... good guy. Glad that Houji died, as cruel as that may be. He had no fighting skills, and was annoying the whole time. But I suppose he got his own twisted happy ending? And I really hope that Saito's not dead, but... SAITOOUU!! ;-; Nooooo Okay, I'm done. |
| ^ Such a sublime ending so happy and sad too, wow. Kenshin was so amazing this episode, I'm glad that he will remember Shishio and the Juppongatana positively. Shishio taking over Hell is so funny and amazing lol, good for him. What an ending. I wish that Houji didn't receive a happy ending but at least he was funny in his reaction to seeing Shishio lol.. I hope that Saito is not dead, I've come to like him lol and Sano's reaction to him walking on off to the fire was amazing, Sano is such an amazing character. What an ending to this arc. It's been great. |
| Pretty good roundup from the past arc, with a more laid back episode, I do wonder what will happen next and what the next arc will bring! |
 |
| No authority is safe from Shishio's power seize... Not even hell. |
| Hoji the dumbass actually thought he would convince the Meiji government to comply with Shishio's plan. rofl Interesting.... cant wait to see what is going to happen from now on.... |
 |
| If Houji survived that definitely Saitou can do it, too fkn bad they didn't even mention him. |
Saitou must return. He didn't get enough closure to his story. |
 |
| I thought the arc dragged on a bit long but it ended nicely. |
 |
| Really loved that ending(new beginning) for souijro, beautifully done |
🌙  I wish you an ounce of luck |
