`   == Needless deletion ==  Somebody deleted my footnote on the Guts and Auron similarities. First off, they are far more profound than those between those and Sanjuro. However, unlike Sanjuro, which is an -internet rumor-, Yoshinori Kitase admitted in a 1997 Famitsu article to being a big fan of ``Berserk`` at that time, in and of itself a heavy influence of Final Fantasy VII and countless inspirations for other Japanese creators/artists. To strike out my notes on Guts and yet keep a COMPLETELY baseless internet ``Rumor`` is absurd. I'm not going to delete the yojimbo article, but I better see some explanations and fast. `
