The single image -- as in still frame -- in RuroKen that breaks my heart the most, every single time, is the shot of Misao chasing Kenshin, while Aoshi moves through the crowd a heartbeat away.

And then Kaoru moves toward Misao, only a heartbeat away from Kenshin.

And they never see the people their hearts are set on.

It feels like a thematic statement. And even though I know Watsuki would never have seen it as such, it feels like some sort of microcosmic metaphor for life itself. It feels like I should probably go the hell to bed and stop waxing philosophical. Or maybe I should just stop reading House of Leaves
