Edit Count:
Number we predicted: 50
Real Number: 11 (12)
NOTE: The 11 there counts the rehash edit from before...but since we already counted it, why do it again. Anyway, you'll find this funny maybe when we were taking edits last night I said I bet they replace opium lines with something else just joking and using the fact that they took out the groin kick the first time and put it back in later, I figured the reverse might be true for the opium thing. ::snickers:: I was just kidding guys, you didn't have to change it. Anyway, off to eat some poppy-seed muffins now ::wink, wink::
-Rurouni Soujirou
NOTE: 'Those lousy Kairyu pirates...the must have found my secret lemon poppy seed cake recipe and they're probably laughing at me right now.' Oh sorry, just the poppy edit was so damned weird especially since Sou jokingly mentioned that it might be changed as inconsistant as the CN edits are. Strange that it should actually happen.

-Rurouni Soujirou
NOTE: Maybe it would have been better if they had made him eat poppy seed muffins or something. I wonder why they chose to remove all reference to 'opium' in these episodes when they remained in the whole Kanryu arc. *shakes head* They are being rather inconsistant here again.
