No there is nothing that bad in any of them...there is an implied sex scene in Reflections (they are married) but it doesn't show ANYTHING and you hear NO bad noises.

It's a very clean anime. No swearing either. Just violence. ^^ (And a TON of violence. That's why it's MA. It's extremely bloody.)
Heart of Sword's Rhapsody

Money, get away
Get a good job with good pay and you're okay
And all and all you're just another brick in the wall
Shoutin’ in the street gonna take on the world some day
But Bismallah will not let me go
Because I'll see you on the dark side of the moon

Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
Bright eyes burning like fire
And exposing every weakness
However carefully hidden by the kids

Who will love a little Sparrow
Who's traveled far and cries for rest
Spare him his life from this monstrosity

I've seen a million faces and I've rocked them all
And if the band youre in starts playing different tunes
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you!

Love is that feeling you get when a girl looks at you and it feels like your driving a car at high speeds and experience a sudden drop. You know what i mean? That sudden sinking feeling you get in your stomach? Yeah, that's love. Leave's you speechless everytime.

There's a DIRECTOR'S CUT?

How did that happen? Was it so violent that the individual red blood cells of the people getting killed also gush out gallons (or perhaps, microliters) of cytosol?

Just extra scenes that weren't in the original, not any kind of more extreme content.

The Director's Cut is basically Trust and Betrayal all in one movie, instead of them being separate. I don't know if they have any extras, since I never saw the individual movies.

It is pretty bloody, and dark... there were two parts in the whole movie that could be interpreted as "funny." And one of them was probably unintentional (the part where Kenshin and Hiko are training at the waterfall... in the Japanese version, when Kenshin gets knocked back, he made such a cute noise that I laughed and re-watched that scene about 4 or 5 times before moving on).

Kyaa!! I saw this last night!! I LOVED it. It was SO amazing!! The music, the animation, the story, all of it...It was so fantastic!! I have a new respect for Kenshin and Tomoe's relationship now...Even though I knew how the movie would end, I was still completely impacted by that infamous scene, not to mention the scene where [SPOILER]Kenshin is saying goodbye to Tomoe for the last time, before he leaves Kyoto. Ack, that was SO sweet!![/SPOILER] I absolutely LOVED it, everything was perfect...Except for Tomoe's English dub voice and the fact that they called her Tomo throughout the entire thing...:eh: But other than that...Simply gorgeous!!

Trust and Betrayal has a scene that is sexual in nature towards the end. Its not to explicit that I can remember but it should be aproached with caution. Tomoe is undressed but I seriously don't remember seeing anything. She is narrating her thoughts in the background. The scene is sad really. Other then that scene which is mabye 2 minutes probobly less (I am teribble about time stuff) there is only violonce, violence, and well more violence.

Reflection is clean. One very unexplicte scene, and you guessed it violence. But Reflections is more of a memory movie (hence the title) from Kaoru's perspective so actually the violence is much less then Trust and Betrayal.

As for added material I can't comment on Trust and Betray (I have only seen the Directors cut of that), but Reflection had some scenes that where great for R-Kenshin fans. Buy the directors cut of reflection, not the OVA one in my opinion.

I recommend both of the movies with the caution about the level of violence which is very bloody.

No, she's not fully undressed. Her kimono is off her shoulders, but she's covered more than Yumi is in the Kyoto Arc, so it's not really a big problem.

As for the violence, yes, it's super bloody, but it's actually not as bloody as I had pictured. :lol: There are no visual beheadings (two headless people seen from far away and for a split second), a few people get split in half, etc. There's no internal organs showing or anything. Just lots and lots of red splashes...and when I say lots, I mean LOTS. But I highly suggest it, it's SO wonderful! :D

Highly accurate regarding this OVA.

My bad. I haven't watched it in a while. Its a bit to sad for this one to stomach too often, call me a big softy...in a good way ]I absolutely LOVED it, everything was perfect...Except for Tomoe's English dub voice and the fact that they called her Tomo throughout the entire thing... But other than that...Simply gorgeous!![/QUOTE]

That confirmes to me that her name is pronounced Tomoe and not Tomo.

LOL I loved this movie!

For some reason though, the part toward the end when Kenshin is running and that drum beat comes up.. It sounded softer of the DC than on the regular version. (I LOVED THAT MUSIC!)

Eh the way I see it..it's not blood..just very red ink!

Ack, YES!! The music was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I think my favorites were the credit song (SO pretty) and one of the fight scenes with the Shinsengumi...I think it was near the end, but it was pretty great music! I even let the DVD menu (which was playing the same song from the credits) play for a good 10-15 minutes after it was over...ugh, I just LOVED it!
