I'm so happy you're watching this, and excited to see it for a 2nd time. I knew you would both love it!

It is so cool to see this series a second time because you catch a lot of details you missed the first time around. In the beginning when Mizu grabs the knife they smirk a little. It is because they notice their own signature on the knife. It adds another dimension to their words. This series is absolutely full of little details like that.

One thing I'm just going to correct because it confused me at first. The guy the samurai cut the fingers off of was called Hachiman the Flesh Trader (like slave trader) not frustrater

So glad you are covering and loving this! Glad you picked up on the androgyny of the samurai. I've seen a lot of good discussions in the fandom identifying them as nonbinary, a trans man, or a cis woman; and the show doesn't really discount any of them (I lean towards nonbinary).

I love that you all are starting on this series! I'm very much looking forward to seeing your reactions going forward. (And you may have already figured it out too, but I figured the song playing during Mizu's training montage (Tomoyasu Hotei's "Battle Without Honor or Humanity") was both appropriate to Mizu's moral code and a shout-out to Beatrix Kiddo in Kill Bill.)
