Michael, it is less about samurai fighting, and more about life and decisions during the period. Samurai movies are okay, but the ones with essence over action are more interesting.

Seibei did not have that “so bad ass” vibe similarly seen in shounen series.

I haven’t watched much samurai movies.

But this seems interesting: I’ll take a look after I get cured. Right now, sleep is of the essence.

I didn’t like Kenshin at all! lols, but I really like samurai stuff and yet I don’t at the same time.

I loved Kenshin too (in both manga and anime formats). Another movie to add to my list…based on your write up and the Wikipedia entry, I think I’d really like this. I really like inner character turmoil almost as much as I like sword swinging action.

I think the samurai stuff comes in waves. A few years ago, samurai dramas regained some popularity too. Now, it’s back to high school love junk again.
