This journey isn't ov--AARGH!
Can be used later for the Viz release....
So stop me if you guys have already seen this, but I just got the Japanese version and thought I'd mention that it features a couple more pages after Akemi chucks herself into the water. It shows Musashi looking in good health and contemplating in the snow, whilst envisioning Otsu. It then cuts to Kojiro who is swinging his bloody stick around (while Hon'ami and his wife (name?!) watch on expressionless), pausing only to right a name in the snow: " 武蔵 " which is, as I'm sure most of you know, Musashi. After Kojiro looks up to the winter sky in seemingly deep though it promptly cuts back to Musashi, who turns his head around sharply as if sensing something (Kojiro, perhaps?).
It's not a lot, I'll grant you, but I was pleasantly surprised!
