This entry is part of 12 Moments in Anime 2009.
#11 is the Kenshin/Kaoru moment in Black Blood Brothers (wiki) between Jiro and Mimiko.
Jiro deals the death blow to August
(If you don’t know the Kenshin/Kaoru moment to which I’m referring, watch episode 30 of Rurouni Kenshin [wiki]. In that episode, Kaoru watches Kenshin’s Battosai persona begin to emerge and she begins to lose hope that she’ll ever see the gentle rurouni persona again.)
Kotaro comforts Mimiko, who is in despair
While Jiro fights August at the end of episode 7, Mimiko drops to her knees in apparent despair and I was like… “Whoa. Deja vu.” The moment was gone as fast as it had come, but really, we’re all about the moments here, aren’t we?
