TV show quotes
Are you here to talk about swords that give life too?
A sword is a weapon. The art of swordsmanship is learning how to kill. That is the truth. What Miss Kaoru says is sweet and innocent talk that only those whose hands have never been stained with the blood of men can believe. But, to tell you the truth, I much prefer Miss Kaoru's sweet and innocent talk over the truth, indeed I do!
No... it isn't sorcery... it's speed! Speed of sword. Speed of body. Speed at reading his opponents' moves. Taking down man after man with the least possible movement! [describing Kenshin the first time she sees him fight]
And you! You say you're 28?! That's a lie and you know it!
Would "30" make you happier?
No, it wouldn't...
[exasperated] This isn't going to be easy...
Are you that bothered by your lack of power, young one?
Damn. I want to be strong. So strong I won't need your help... Strong enough to defend my father and mother's pride on my own.
Of course.
[to Kaoru] Ugly!
[When asked to pay for a restaurant tab] Kinda academic, isn't it? You know I'll never pay.
I can't lose...not to the men who made Captain Sagara and the Sekiho army bear the evil mark of "aku."
Blood...Not enough...There is not enough blood! Those who bathe in blood should be praised!
[to Kaoru] If I take you as hostage, the Battousai will be angry. And the legendary manslayer that he was will return because of that anger.
A double Battōjutsu?! Using the sword and... its sheath...
What a nice feeling... Don't look at me like that, Battousai. I much prefer the look in your eyes when you said you were going to kill me. Within every fiber of your being, you're truly a manslayer. I am also a manslayer so I know of what I speak. A manslayer is a manslayer until the day he dies... he can never be anything else. I'll be watching you from the edge of hell... to see how long you can keep saying you're a wanderer.
Kanryu took me in...and I became his woman. We only use each other. He uses me to get the opium...and I use him to survive.
[to Megumi] Are you gone yet, you vixen?!
Aoshi found this wolf... and rescued him! He trained me into a first class onmitsu! He gave me the Edo castle oniwabanshu, my comrades... and my reason to live! If I can be of any use to Aoshi, what need have I for a face?!
I told you before. It was inevitable that we fight.
