Last night I watched up to ep.10 of Kuroshitsuji (the rest are downloading) and then put on random episodes of Kenshin. It's been /years/. I actually started watching from the beginning, saw about 4 episodes and then watched random ones from the Kyoto arc, starting at the point where Houji tried to convince Shishio about obtaining "complete victory". I forgot how much I liked him and Shishio. They really were not your typical sidekick and villain. I also forgot how messed up Aoshi was. XD; And how wonderful the soundtrack was.
Overall the style of the anime was really different. It stuck to being very shounen. In the beginning when Kenshin decided to stay etc, if it's done now they'd really drag those scenes out with still screens and lip movements and whatnot, and the general pacing would be different as well. Still, I kept thinking it would be amazing if they re-produced this anime now. Make it much prettier. Get rid of those horrible OP songs. And give it a great soundtrack from the beginning (rather than just for the Kyoto arc). Do the entire thing in the Kenshin OVA style, even. Oh, my heart would bleed with joy.
Actually I did put on the first episode of Sengoku Basara too but went ???????? at it and then put on Kenshin instead. ^^" Maybe it wasn't the first episode and I was just confused?
In other news, I changed my mind about one of the scenes in [In Plain Sight]. Gotta go back and edit edit edit. Luckily it's ch.5 & 6 and I've only posted up to ch.3. Struggling with how much Dave should change and how much about himself he should talk about even after he had the (gradual and actually almost not described) change of heart about things. To Torgal, all right, he could say a lot. But to Irina? Even though he knew she was already clued-in? Hmmm...
