Does anybody remember what was the name of the ritual that Dinobot was performing at teh beginning of Code of Hero? I konw it's a Japanese suicide thing that warriors commit when they feel that the only honor left would be death, but I can't remember the name of the thing to save my life.

It's called "seppuku."

Yay for seventh-grade history class. And a more than slightly demented history teacher.

Oooooohhhhh, that's what he was doing. For some reason I thought that he was going to damage the floor while visualizing his victim on the ground in front of him.

Yup he was trying to kil himself. It took me awhile to figure it out.

Ahhh :idea: I for some reason always thought he was doing a sort of meditation exercise. Now I get it, it makes sense.

An alternate name for seppuku is "harakiri."

When I first saw it I thought he was meditating but after I saw the missing wingman formation I knew what was going on.

I didn't pick up on those hints at first. I had to read fanfics by the expert fangirls to get it.
