It's a filler cuz it wasn't shown in the manga by the way... hm, Yahiko's ego gets in the way and he falls into this trap that these bad guys who want to kill Kenshin place to steal Kenshin's reverse blade sword... in the end Yahiko still makes it out and kicks the bad guys in the nuts. That looked like it hurt, it sent him into another dimension... and then Kenshin once again kicks the other bad guys butts... I hope thats the last we hear of those lying people who pretend to use magic. Kenshin's last sword move was really cool and stuff... also this review applies to the dubbed version, couldn't find the sub.moreless

- Yahiko: I've had enough of these wooden swords. I should train with a real sword, like a real swordsman. Kaoru: No way! I'm sure if you even held a real sword you'd be trembling in fear! Yahiko: I don't think that would happen at all! Edit
- Yahiko: Hey you over there, can you take away this wooden sword for me? Kaoru: Stop fooling around Yahiko you're still a begginer do you hear me!? Edit
