QUOTE (ImTakes @ Oct 13 2009, 11:22 PM) I went back to re-watch episode 2 and I liked it much better this time around. I came at it from a different point of view, this second time. Sure, I read the manga and remembered lots of what I read, but what struck me this time, was the beauty of Kikiyo's pain, the beauty of Kagura's death, and the music that played in the background, that is what made me remember some of the most poignant moments of this classic series...hell, I was impressed and decided to keep watching this series, after all.
One more thing that came to me again, after re-watching episode 2, Kagura died with dignity, smiling, at the one she most sought after... and we all know who that is, right, warita-chan?
I must admit, that she died with dignity, unlike some other youkais. Well, in a way, I was happy for her, that Sesshoumaru came to see her. She got to see him one last time and he is showing us, that his heart is not made of ice. Sesshoumaru has made a great progress over the course of the anime. I was even surprised, he anwered jacken and rin, when they asked him about the broken sword.
Either way, the second episode was far mor interesting. I am looking forward to the 3rd, seems that we get a little filler with sippou-chan. Also more of Sesshoumaru.... what more can a fan girl ask for?
