Things just got intense!

8.5

By ZaleIsBackAgain, Aug 27, 2010

For much of the anime it feels like the Kouga are getting chipped in numbers one by one, and that they're currently fighting an uphill battle. In this episode they just lost another member in Okoi. And the ninja she thought she killed? Still alive. Then that changes in the final minute. The presence of Gennosuke alone makes it feel like he is worth 5 ninja that even outnumbered, the enemy quivers in fear. Great way to conclude the episode. Makes it feel like the two sides are now even. In addition the scene before it when Okoi's brother was forced to withdraw any emotion in front of his dying sister to keep cover, shows the composure ninjas have to hold and how intense the ninja world really is.moreless

  Tenzen: Oboro-sama, please wait!
  Oboro: No, I cannot allow this! Keeping that woman from Manjidani locked up in here? This is not how we operate! I will not be a party to this.
  Tenzen: Oboro-sama, listen! We must not turn back! Oboro-sama!
