So the barrier that the Goddess Hanatora created was based on Zanzo and Shinsuke's blood. Well, in many ways this is a shifting of the guard as we focus on Senya & Tsukiko going forward. I don't mind the time skip for Senya as his fight with Mudo was a big statement of his progression. But for Tsukiko I guess would like to see who she trained a little bit. My assumption she is following similarly to how Shinsuke was and under Hanatora's guidance. Tbh she might have out ranked him at this point. I do hope we get to see more of Shinsuke again because I felt he had more room left in his story.
Hanatora giving the Soul Sword was interesting. We do see who see refers to is the Shogun and I love how he is with Senya. No offense to Shinsuke, but the Shogun before his fight with Mudo got him on the right path. Honestly, his goal of being a man that can smile and cry is such a simple goal in theory, but it is a core foundation of what makes one human.
These 5 are known as the Void People, and they aim to save their homeland. Curious how they can dip into the future. They share the same bloodline as Senya and have Fairy Eyes much like Jinka. Them targeting Jinka and Senya as singularity makes sense. Seems they have Jinka under their control, but they failed to defeat Senya. Still have numerous questions.
Looks like next episode we get an encounter with Jinka. Curious how that goes.
