    I actually quit bothering with the details a while back and just enjoyed what was going on onscreen.

    Just when you thought your head is securely on your shoulders, the katana comes and swipes it off.

    started watching this show recently.

    not the best ever, but satisfies my crave for samurai anime. the story is still confusing the hell out of me in episode 4... so many characters...

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Don't worry, it's pretty much as confusing still after episode 12... Still, to be honest, this series has more like two partially intertwined stories than just one. The Eternal Assassin one (head hunter, literally), and the historical Bakumatsu one. The Assassin plot seems quite straight-forward, but the historical one has like 220 characters introduced in 10 episodes (and counting), which makes it somewhat tougher to follow.

    Well, I do what shinta|hikari said; I don't even try to remember all those doods and they factions and allegiances and ambitions and plans. This is highly enjoyable, in my opinion, even without trying to catch everything.

    Few things in this world are more beautiful yet terrible than a clean swipe of a sword that chops a head off.
