love and death

"Rurouni Kenshin" is actually not particularly fascinated by the normal version of the animation. I don't like the kind of work where each episode has a story without a link between the upper and lower episodes, like Conan.
After reading this memoir, I have to admire the screenwriter. It's been a long time since I saw such a wonderful drama.
Love and death, the eternal themes of art works, are even more cruel and tragic in that turbulent era of war. The death of her fiancé made Ba almost collapse, and she had to do something to support her to survive. Therefore, in order to avenge her fiancé, she participated in the assassination of Jianxin.
But fate is always cruel, but it makes Ba fall in love with the enemy who killed his husband, and he can't help but think of the phrase "When human beings think, God laughs..." In front of fate, people always seem so powerless, So insignificant.
A fiancé, an enemy who killed his fiancé. In the emotional lingering between the two men, one can imagine the pain and struggle in Ba's heart.
From the moment Ba fell in love with Jianxin, the tragedy was doomed. For his fiancé, Ba is full of guilt. Ba also feels guilty about cheating Jianxin.
This is an unsolvable situation. If she is desperate with Jian Xin, she will not be able to face the future of death, and she will not be able to kill Jian Xin with pain. And to be free from this painful struggle, the only way is to end one's own life.
According to the above analysis, the last "I'm sorry, husband!" should be said to two men together, one is the man who betrayed himself, and the other is the man who deceived himself. She can only forgive herself by dying, and the last knife cut through the resentment and hatred before, and also allowed Jian Xin to be redeemed and relieved.
