Finished watching the raw episode just now and man I felt like crying!
Thank you animators for the lovely episode 5, it makes a KoMasa fangirl like me really happy. I'm not gonna spoil those who've yet to watch it, so I'ma just put it under a cut. :3
It's so awfully sad seeing Masamune alone without Kojuurou! Masamune's desperate to get Kojuurou back, but on the other hand, Hanbei's pretty much convinced Kojuurou that Masamune's dead thanks to Hideyoshi's attack. Argh the angst! JUST LET THEM MEET ALREADY! Why do I get a feeling like "Romeo and Juliet"?
So Masamune lost one of his six swords in the battle with Hideyoshi, which was used as an item to convince Kojuurou that Masamune's dead by Hanbei. Now Kojuurou's got Masamune's sword, and Masamune's got Kojuurou's. Masamune replaced his lost sword with Kojuurou's! Swinging it with such a painful expression of his face makes me wanna sob for him. ;_;
The episode also showed flashbacks of what Masamune remembered back in the days where Kojuurou wanted to kill himself because he couldn't protect Masamune enough. Masamune stopped him. (duh) Thanks to this episode, I'm loving KoMasa a whole lot more than I used to now!
I can't wait to see the episode where they're back together again! T-T
