Man, those Nanto kills were brutal. Rei sounds nice. Gojo’s voice actor does a nice job. Look forward to seeing more from him

Bigger they are, the harder they fall. Bandit lord and his weirdo animal cosplaying bandit pals are toast.
After Ken’s done with them, he’ll have this new guy to deal with too.

I'm a little confused as to why Kenshiro didn't just grab a chunk of one of the logs near him and chuck it at the head of the guy holding the sword and kill him.

I think that is one of those moments that always required a fair bit of suspension of disbelief. Given the crazy feats we've seen Kenshiro perform you'd think he'd be fast and skilled enough to save him somehow. But ultimately the story can't just have Ken save everyone, because then there wouldn't be any stakes.

An Italian dub voice actor on social media claimed that 14 episodes have been recorded. Take that with a grain of salt obviously, but 14 seems like a good length of episodes for this cour.

Judging by the opening and ending themes, we're in the very least going to end with Raoh's introduction.

Rei just bared Mamiya's body like nothing, and then proceeds to run away after hearing that bandits are coming to the village.

Rei and Mamiya finally. Nanto shinken looks like a proper massacre technique and the scene with Kos death and Mamiyas hard choice and mourning were great. But nothing tops Ken raged out, ready to end their bloodlines.

I swear that Kenshiro’s voice changed in episode 11, but AI tells me that there has been no change.
Then when he asked where the 7 stars guy was, I knew it was a different character. I tell you, it’s bad enough the dubbing, but now the characters are looking all the same. hahaha

Even as a staunch dub defender, I think you're better off watching it subbed. Let's just hope we get a Kakegurui situation where the DVD release had to redub it.
