The AnimaTure

You just got to love Washizu's vision!
He is the type of guy who would do anything for the person he loves.

If she told him to jump of a bridge he would seriously do it.

Before episode 6 starts we get to see a Washizu vision where he still has to return the handkerchief he got from Ibuki and that she was talking in a rather demonic-high-standing-person-that-looks-down-on-others voice.

Keita Torigaya, a friend of Washizu, was leaving the toilet and saw Washizu with the handkerchief thinking it was for him to dry his hands.

At the moment he touched the handkerchief with his wet hand he was send flying by Washizu wondering why.

I just wanted to dry my hands :'(

After the intro Washizu is still wondering when is he going to give the handkerchief to Ibuki as he then heard Ibuki yelling.

He turns around and sees Yoichi running with a nosebleed and Ibuki chasing him with a broom.

She did not cause the nosebleed, but Yoichi got it from a sculpture that resembled a naked woman.

Ignoring all that, Washizu was offering the handkerchief to Ibuki in a respectful manner, but Ibuki was too busy with chasing Yoichi and used one of her special attacks which grazed Washizu instead of Yoichi.

His clothes got torn and his face a little bit bruised.

The face of defeat

Not being troubled about it he is still thinking of a way to return the handkerchief and thought of a plan.
He was going to put it in her shoe locker together with a letter with a plan to confess on the roof.

The way he started to get feelings for Ibuki is shortly explained by himself and this shows that even when he may be a delinquent, that he has manners.

However... It seems he put the letter in the wrong shoe locker and that shoe locker belonged to Yoichi.


He wanted to take this change to settle things with Yoichi, but Yoichi got him off guard and also misunderstood the meaning of the letter.
He asked if Washizu was interested in learning martial arts as he goes on that he noticed that Washizu was looking at Ibuki.

Washizu told Yoichi he had no interest in learning martial arts and Yoichi praised his strong fists while Washizu did not notice that Ibuki was standing behind Yoichi.

Yoichi then turned to Ibuki and she welcomed Washizu to train at her dojo.

remember what i said with my second sentence?
Told you he'd do everything for the one he loves.


As the scene changes we get to see a serious man that is scarred and seems to have lost his right eye sweeping out candle lights blindfolded with his sword.

We know that we are going to see more of him because that shady shadow man with yellow eyes praised him.
Also because he hired him to defeat Yoichi for a large sum of money, which he burned since he did not need money.

You could've given all that money to me-hseums. * Kuch*

So Washizu arrives at the dojo still saying he has no interest in learning martial arts and was arguing a bit with Keita.

Keita suddenly got kicked in the back by a little kid and that is tossed aside quickly as Ibuki welcomes them all and called them friends when explaining who Washizu and Keita were.

Washizu was not getting any training from Ibuki yet, but from Yoichi who is his archenemy.

As they were training and Washizu admiring Ibuki, he got smacked on the side of the head by Yoichi's wooden sword.

He wanted to punch Yoichi with iron ball spiked gloves, but Ibuki then spoke to him and he hid them.

At first he was saying not to learn anything from the one he hates, but after Ibuki said it was the right choice to let Yoichi train him he immediately agreed.

The two sisters, Kagome and Chihaya went to see why it was so lively in the dojo and then noticed Washizu and Keita.

At that same moment Ayame got home and wondered where everyone was and looked outside when she heard Yoichi screaming.

Ibuki was running after Yoichi because he hit Washizu too hard because he blinked.
She punished him as usual with a beating and chose her example words harshly as she was calling Washizu a weakling and Yoichi not fit to be a samurai without noticing it that she indirectly called them that.


As she helped Yoichi back up they were smiling at each other and Ayame, who still is struggling in the lovey-dovey situation between Ibuki and Yoichi, ran off with a troubled face.
The only one to notice this was Chihaya as usual.

As the training continues and Yoichi is telling Washizu to start with basic training he was refusing to do it, but as soon Ibuki said that basic training was very important he did whatever Yoichi said.



However, Yoichi is now going to train with him and do the same exercises he gives Washizu because of the lecture Ibuki gave him.
He wants to retrain himself in order to become a true samurai and Washizu was only thinking about what a show-off Yoichi tried to be in front of Ibuki.

Yoichi and Washizu are still doing push-ups even after they reach 700 push ups.
They're going for the full 1000 and both Yoichi and Washizu are spend for the rest of the day.

Kagome is the chef of the house and right after they did their push-ups it is time to sit together and eat!

Ibuki fed Washizu a bit and Ayame did the same with Yoichi.
Yoichi was saying that these kind of gatherings are fun because everyone was there and even Ayame which made her blush and stomp Yoichi's mouth with food.

Here and there some little screen time for the assassin that got hired.
It looked like he was getting somewhere....lost.

He was, just like Yoichi trained on the mountains and knew nothing of the modern stuff.
He was wondering where Yoichi was, but it seems he is somewhere else instead of the dojo where Yoichi is.

The sister with a mask and yellow eyes flew by with a helicopter calling her brother's assassin useless and was hoping that she would get the next chance to get rid of Yoichi.
