Anyone know any anime that takes place around the Japanese feudal times? Like maybe the Meiji era give or take a few centuries?

The only one that I can think of is Kenshin....

So if you know any at all then please post.

Wrath of the Ninja (this is a re-package of an older OVA called Yotoden)
Curse of the Undead (Yoma)
Ninja Resurrection

All of these should be considered R-rated for violence and gore (typical Japanese sword-fighting material).

Ninja Cadets! Has that feudal feel to it. The plot is based around a group of ninja that were born out of the ashes of a clan that got wiped out after all.

Inuyasha pissed me off. The later portion of season 1 and all of 2 were okay; but that first episode was such a rip. A couple years back I saw that, and I was all like: "Fushigi Yugi? Yep, Fushigi Yugi! Fushigi Yugi all the way." While Inuyasha didn't turn out to be such a Soap Opera it was still a total rip.
