Samurai Deeper Kyo

This weekend my master is going away to spend some time with that useless guy she's dating. Once again I'm not included. She thinks I'll ruin it for her but we all know he does that by himself. While they are away I will watch some episodes of the anime adaptation Samurai Deeper Kyo. I've watched it before and the ending has always left me wondering about who remains in the end. To me it's Demon Eyes Kyo (Onime-no-Kyo). What do you think?


Samurai Deeper Kyo is a manga series written and illustrated by Akimine Kamijyo.
Samurai Deeper Kyo follows the story of Demon Eyes Kyo as he seeks to regain his body after his soul was sealed inside the body of his rival, Mibu Kyoshiro. Kyo is joined in his search by the bounty-hunter Shiina Yuya, the heir to the Tokugawa shogunate Benitora, and Sanada Yukimura, a known rival of the Tokugawa.
The manga was adapted into an animated television series in 2002 for a total of 26 episodes.
The anime adaptation takes extreme liberties with the plot, and only vaguely follows the plot of the manga. Kyo is an artificial construct, born of Kyoshiro's attempt to purge violence and cruelty from himself. While Kyo is sealed inside Kyoshiro after losing a swordfight to him, the circumstances behind it are different. Kyoshiro confronts Kyo at the Battle of Sekigahara in order to stop his bloody rampage, rather than to protect Sakuya. Apart from these and flashbacks to his time with Muramasa, Akira and Hotaru, the anime provides fewer details of Kyo's past.
