More drama and flashbacks again, as Kita reflects on the first time he met the real Yagyuu Jubei. I guess he and Koinosuke knew each other (and Koinosuke was a terrible swordsman!), and he also seems to have a one-eye-closed thing going on. I found it interesting to see some more of the buildup between [...]

What’s this? Two good episodes in a row?! As hard as it is to believe, it’s true; episode 16 actually has me really looking forward to the next episode.

Finally, some light is shed on the nature of the lovely eyepatch. The user’s intentions are reflected in the type of eyepatch they use, and it seems that in her current state, Felicia will never be able to claim the heart eyepatch. Naturally, Felicia is too blinded with rage to see this, and takes out [...]
