Am I even spelling the group right? Anyway, before I go on about the episode, I loved the part when Hiko is like "This way I'll have more fun torturing, uh, training you" and Kenshin goes "Huh?" and Hiko just says never mind. Nice humour right there lol. The whole episode I enjoyed watching.
I feel so sorry for Misao now, to have all the people she grew up with dead, or betrayed her. Okina and the four others of the Oniwaban died, and Aoshi doesn't even acknowledge her anymore, as if he had never known who she as. Aoshi truly has lost all of his sanity, he must be mentally insane right now, although he doesn't show it. I hope that Misao and him will work things out. So, it was a perfect episode, that it was.moreless
Episode Summary
EDIT
While Kenshin continues his training with Master Hiko, the Oniwaban Group are in trouble. In Kyoto itself, Aoshi finds himself having to choose between his revenge and his old friends. Okina is determined to stop Aoshi to protect Kenshin and the rest of the Oniwaban Group, and the two meet to decide their fate with blades. Misao having learned of Aoshi's need for revenge, realises she must find them and stop them before she loses either her mentor or the man she loves.moreless

ADD QUOTES-
Hiko: This way I'll have fun torturing, uh, training you. Kenshin: Huh? Hiko: Never mind!
-
Hiko: You think you can learn the final secret of the Hiten Mitsurgi Style like this? You stupid apprentice!
-
Hiko: Just because a sword has been raised doesn't mean it will come flying at you. You rely too much on reading the motions of your opponent.
-
Omasu: It makes no difference either way. We still have to let her go. Because no matter what happens today, Misao is going to end up losing one of them. It'll either be the one closest to her, or the one that she loves. There is no doubt about that.
-
Shishio: A country in which chaos means existence...That is the Hell I am trying to create.
-
Shishio: This blazing heat has burned my entire body...as well as my brain,and it began to tell me the truth. Chaos is the basic nature of humanity. And this world itself is Hell. No killing? All men are equal? Such thoughts are small and fragile.
-
Aoshi: Whether it's steel, an old ally, or even Himura the Battousai, there is nothing I can't slash with my two kodachis.
-
Aoshi: Some fine predators they were, to be defeated by a group of ordinary rats.
-
Shishio: Do you believe that Hell exists? Houji: Hell, sir? Shishio: Yeah. Houji: No, I believe that men are slabs of meat regardless of virtue. When they die, they rot and return to the earth.
-
Misao: Call me Okashira!
