Rating:  - A very, very bad movie
This has to be one of the all-time worst movies ever made. I mean, come on! Lou Diamond Philips and Jennifer Tilly as Inuits? The whole movie is a shameless distortion of Inuit life and culture, the type of portrayal one would have expected from a movie made in the 1930s. Worst of all, though, is the fact that Toshiro Mifune somehow felt compelled to become involved with this movie. Why, man? Why? You were such a grea actor and certainly didn't need something like this to besmirch your great ... Read More
Rating:  - Definetaly one of the best
Wow, this tape absolutely blew me away! This is by far my most favorite tape out of this whole series. I love the scene with the fireflies! It brings a tear to my eye every time I watch it. A very touching and shocking tape. It might be easier to understand it if you've seen Samurai X Trust and Betrayal, since that tells the story of Kenshin when he was the Hitokiri Battousai, that way you would know more about his past and some of the characters that show up in these episodes.
Rating: - A Must See
Rurouni Kenshin: Shadow of the Wolf is probably one of the best episodes I have ever seen in an anime. SOTW begins the Legend of Kyoto storyarc where Kenshin Himura's relatively peaceful life at the Kamiya dojo is shattered when a visitor from the past appears, and now Kenshin must become a wanderer once again, to save all of Japan from the clutches of Mokoto Shishio - a former manslayer with aspirations of ruling Japan in his own manner "If you are strong you live, if you are weak you die."

Despite the expense this was to me -- hey, I live in New Zealand -- this tape was well worth what I had to fork out for it. I've been waiting to see this for a while, and I was suitably impressed; the animation is very clean and beautiful, and the music is stunning. Of course, this is all augmented by having a powerful storyline behind it all; this was an incredible introduction to the new story arc. The climatic battle between Kenshin and Saitou took my breath away, and even though the overall tone is ... Read More
Rating: - Rurouni Kenshin: Shadow of the Wolf
A mixture of light and shadow, good and evil and great love and sorrow, this is the best Volume of Rurouni Kenshin to date and the beginning of the much talked of Kyoto Arc. I have waited for this one for months now and was not disappointed. The tone of the entire series changes in this volume as fate pushs Kenshin and his friends into choices they would rather not make. The fates of two men hang in the balance and the choice of one is vital to the safety of all. If you have not seen this anime series I ... Read More
