for anybody thinking of joining the army for anyone going off to war listen to hiko seijuro's words first and ponder about it

[AznDemonLord]

Hiko is never unarmed. Hiko wins automatically.

I hate this dub, but I gotta give due credit to Seijuro Hiko's English VA for channeling Lawrence Fishburne as Morpheus. Seriously, was I the only one who thought that while listening to the dub? It's weirdly appropriate. Another thing I got to give credit to is that the dub actually makes Kenshin sound male. Other than that, stick to the subs.

I wish i couldve had a mentor like Hiko, he's seen some of the most horrible things human beings could do. Did it benefit humankind for him to become a hermit while all this political strife was happening, or maybe it was for the better. Either way, Hiko probably could've been a major part if he had entered the war.

@EmperorArmand Wow English dub is so good, Jap version is 10x worse

@key11207 yes good point the same thought was in my head but same i didnt know how.. i mean i had my school and some video games that consumed all my day.

i can see now school could be a way that some1 could keep u busy with problems thats shouldnt even exist and in the end i ended up buy forgeting half of what ive learned. there should be a change in schools...

[key11207]

@rurounisld yeah that is true i have seen many of my friends already join the army because of paying for college or a job and yes i completely agree with you on the saving the world dream it was something i really wanted to do you know help the world and stuff but i didnt know how at all so i dont blame kenshin for doing all that cause i understand how he feels

[rurounisld]

@key11207 well as an American u know better that me what war in Vietnam did to ur soldiers.

Many songs like Metallica- one, alice in chains - rooster talk about ppl that lost their legs and their sight in the war and even ppl that got mad...

in the modern world unfortunately ppl that cant find a job will end up as mercenaries.. anyway Kenshin wanted to save the world as any teens dream but he got used. i remember he sufered with all those thoughts in his head.

[key11207]

@rurounisld i like those quotes too and i do agree with them not that i have anything against the soldiers just that they don't realize what exactly they are doing that they are just becoming pawns in a play that cost's them their lives

[rurounisld]

@key11207 great point.

No matter what political reasons are given for war, the underlying reason is always economic.

~A. J. P. Taylor

War means blind obedience, unthinking stupidity, brutish callousness, wanton destruction, and irresponsible murder.

~Alexander Berkman

The dangerous patriot...is a defender of militarism and its ideals of war and glory.

~Colonel James A. Donovan, Marine Corps

Hiko is chuck norris' shadow
