This was such a well thought out and executed way to portray dementia. Even though it was an action scene it brought me to tears in memory of Grandparent's that I've had to watch go though similar fates. This is forever cemented as one of my top anime

Vice Commander of the Shinsengumi, the Shinsengumi came about during the Meiji Era of Japan and are known as one if not the most influential groups at the time of its inception, originally created as a means too stop and curb assassination attempts on the Shogun as well as the rest of the Tokugawa Shogunate and retainers at that time, thank you Rurouni Kenshin for that bit of knowledge, I learned more about history from anime than I did in books, all I needed was a push

The Wolves of Mibu

[@hteteaindraykyaw996]

Hijikata was raised in a farmer family of Ishida village. He had the wild dream of becoming a samurai. Only people with samurai lineage were allowed to become a samurai thus for someone with humble background like Hijikata, it is like an imaginary dream. People mocked him for that. Also Shinsengumi wasn't recognized as samurai only saw them as a Yakuza gang by the town they were protecting. In latest Bakumatsu era, despite their government who rule japan for centuries and pretigious samurai families already retreated from the war and surrendered, Hijikata and other resistances choose to continue to fight until their death. Hijikata who was mocked by his allies for dreaming to become a samurai, recognized and honored for his bravery and loyalty by his enemies as the last samurai of Bakumatsu.

[@2551987ezio]

Man. The way he had died was really quite impactful. Especially the part where he cried out about his master betraying him and that everything he did was for his master. A really nice send off at the end.

He reminds me so much of Kogan Iwamoto from Shigurui. They aren't identical in personality, as Iwamoto was a monster in the more traditional sense, but seeing both swordsmen become extremely capable in their advancing years as soon as an opponent appeared is incredible.

[@g.sergiusfidenas6650]
