    "you are more man than any man who has walked through my door". The fact that no one knows she's a girl until Ringo and Fowler found out is just too good to be true. Fowler "why do keeps happening", Yes she will always keep happen because Vengeance, determination and not wanting to be seen as a woman is what really makes Mizu unstoppable. When you pretend to be what you are not, you try everything possible so no one knows "your bones break like that of a woman"- statement came up twice from Fowler and someone else I can't remember when she was almost done for, but it set her ablaze. I really enjoyed this series than arcane, that I watched it whole twice a day. So happy for the renewal and salute to all those that brought us this Master piece 🙌

    23:17 This may sound strange, but i found it touching how kind the brothel girls were with Ringo. Like, they obviously saw his disability and could tell he was a little on the slow, naive side, but rather than mock him for his disability or make him feel bad for being inexperienced, they go out of their way to be considerate and slowly guide him through the process. Sure, it can be argued that they were extra nice because the Samurai woman paid them handsomely in advance, but I like to think they would’ve been gentle with him regardless

    I have never connected with a piece of media more in my life. As someone who is a White/Japanese mix, I felt so seen through the entire show. Every one of Mizu's struggles is one that I can understand. I have blue eyes, and have very Japanese features. It is easy to see that I am mixed. I have never been enough for my family. My white family finds me too 'oriental' and my Japanese family finds me too whitewashed. My father was always called a White devil by my mother's side. And I am in the middle of a legal battle with my father for all that he has done. It has taken all I have not to want the revenge that Mizu seeks. Her happiness being destroyed by that thirst for revenge makes me understand what could have happened if I took that path. This show means the world to me. Thank you for Blue Spirit for making such a piece of art that speaks so much to my soul. Thank you Michael Green and Amber Noizumi for making me feel seen.

    I love how Mizu and Swordfather interact. A bit of tough love, but also helping her become strong and skilled. Because of him allowing her to stay on as an apprentice, she grows strong from hammering steel. And by allowing her to practice, she learns multiple styles and how to exploit their weaknesses, employing, in my eyes, a hybrid style. And what's more, he doesn't care about her being of mixed metal, knowing she has the chance to be better than what she thinks.

Netflix produces shows, just like how Paramount, WB produces movies. There are tons of bad shows on Netflix because the writing and directing might be bad, same goes for the opposite.

    Yes Mizu's storyline is amazing but can we talk about Taigen-Akemi storyline? At the first episode all Akemi wanted was to be happy with the man she loves while Taigen wanted honor and something great for himself. But at the end of the show, after all their struggles and all that they have been through, Taigen only wanted to spend the time with Akemi in peace while Akemi wanted to be something bigger than herself. The way their ambition reversed is just so......poetic.

    Something about Mizu sets her apart from many of the "strong female characters" you see in popular media these days, who are written to be all-powerful, beautiful, and with perfectly heroic personalities.
    She doesn't have special powers - her skill as a swordswoman comes from pure grit and effort.
    She isn't beautiful, but she has a cool androgynous look that makes her unconventionally attractive.
    She has obvious character flaws, as she lacks empathy and appears mildly sociopathic.
    She has a good mix of positive and negative traits. She's interesting. And she's extraordinary, but still believable and relatable.

    Absolute must-see series and a true gem on Netflix. Blue Eye Samurai completely surprised and overwhelmed me with its story and character depth, the previously unseen quality of animation (motion-captured with real life martial arts artists), and the artistic look which reminds me of Zelda and Studio Ghibli (Chihiro etc). The storytelling is complex and is surprising in every episode, the characters - including the foes - kept me excited and had me participate in their fate. A true masterpiece which kept me focused from episode 1 to 8, something I have not experienced in a long time, no matter how many new shows appear on Netflix every year.
    If Netflix does not continue this series with a season 2, I will be greatly disappointed.
