... you can say what you like about late Symphony #2 having its share of missteps, and 16(!!) years later I might not even disagree with you?

But I still cannot agree that the bit in Knights 3 where Anthy pushes Akio is anything other than a perfect moment.

So long, screwy. Seeya in St. Louie. Have a nice trip. Seeya next fall. Watch that last step, it's a Duesy.

A doozy, yep. A real humdinger.

So, outta curiosity, I went back and read Knights 3. I see the misstep, but it wasn't on the authors part.

Akio.

As was pointed out in the discussion on Nothing That Is In Between, it was actually an upgrade - something which probably doesn't happen often.

Insert humorous comment here.

As came up in my recent L5R campaign when the samurai were fighting zombie ashigaru

Player: (re: target of his attack) "Is he dead?"
Me: "Well technically yes, but in this case that's a problem not a solution."
