Can you clarify your question?

Samurai X is the name used for the English version of the Rurouni Kenshin series. Maybe you're talking about the OVA?

I think he WAS a Samurai..around the time He got the X shaped scar on his face.. Then when he swore to never kill again.. He just became a wandering swordsman..
