I'm not gonna try to name each character as my recall for Japanese names isn't all that good, but I can honestly say I don't think I have ever watched a movie and cared for so many characters as much as I did with BR. The deaths themselves are actually superficial to the story, which is an incredibly impressive achievement considering how violent the movie is.
I agree with Straker. Excellently put. It would be a shame if BR didn't make the list or honorable mentions.

Wish we could get more support for that one
