IE: Vagabond, Texhnolyzed (anime), and Rurouni Kenshin (OVA Samurai X) Edit: I would like to also add that considerable mental battle must occur in the main character, as in an inner struggle despite his outer silence. That would be preferred Last edited by brunzwickw at 12:48 am, Sep 10

Kurozuka I don't if you can consider him a silent protagonist, but I'm pointing it out anyway... ________________ What I like in Trivial Pursuit style. Pick your category:
