    Default Rurouni Kenshin

    Sorry for making so many threads lately, but I just want your honest opinions on some really cool anime.

    In North America Rurouni Kenshin aired on the Adult Swim late-night block back in the oughties, correct me if I'm wrong.

    Q: Have you watched Rurouni Kenshin? If so, how was it for you?

    Ooooo, another one I like. I read Rurouni Kenshin when I was younger and I still have the series sitting on my shelf. I also have a few art books. I really liked this series, it was one of my early anime and I enjoyed it thoroughly.

    I read the manga and was vastly disappointed considering the hype backing it up. Really seemed like something I would like but I found it dull.

    I watched Rurouni Kenshin when my Aikido Sensei brought it to my house and showed it too me. We watched all 110 episodes and then watched the Samurai X OVA's. It was really awesome. And I was about 13 then so Anime was still pretty new to me. He made me watch it dubbed too.

    It is a really great series, and Kenshin is really easy to get comfortable with as well as Sanosuke, Yahiko, and Kyarou, but my favorite character was Aoshi Shinomura. Not sure why since he was more of a B-Rate character but he had his moments. Right next to Shishio.

    Rurouni Kenshin the TV series is excellent~! The manga is even better, but its amazing all the same.

    However-the Rurouni Kenshin: Betrayal and Reflection OVAs have fabulous animation~They are beautifully drawn, and gorgeously voiced…I will not argue that point. And no one can ever say otherwise…But they did the true story in the manga *no* justice…
    I’ll take the manga’s version of events over the Betrayal OVA and especially the Reflection OVA any day.

    I am still so, so, so disappointed in the way they skewed the Kenshin story. ::shakes her head in disgust.::

    One of my favorites that I watched as a kid. I like the whole story and my favorite arc is the Kyoto Arc with my favorite fight being the second between Kenshin an Aoshi.

    I will say that it was hard for me to keep interest in the story after Shishio.

    I've only watched an OVA which was very different from the feeling I had when I began to watch the anime version (much more serious/sad). Are there different manga of Kenshin ? What is Betryal and Reflection OVA ? I'm a little confused.

    The OVAs were very sad--and they were a very heavily butchered rendition of the third story arc in the manga. The third story arc delves in to Kenshin's past and let's him actually finally figure out how rto truly make up for what he did as a Hitokiri--WITHOUT dying at the end.

    As I said-the OVAs were beautifully crafted in every way except for the story. That was maimed horribly. They should have just kept what the manga did originally...The Kyoto arc in the TV anime was fabulous. Almost right on the money with the feel and story from the manga. The OVAs...Not so much.

    Tbh the first thing I saw was the OAV, and I was pretty disappointed by the beginning of the manga (I was young orz ) but yeah I understand now, thanks for explanations.

    Also, made me curious to try again the mangas, or the TV series if I don't find it.

    Since I haven't watched this in its entirety (that will soon change; love you, Kenshin!!), does Kenshin have a love interest in the saga?

    The Rurouni Kenshin series is beautiful, it's well written and has amazing character development.

    Not to mention Kenshin is the #1 best character in shonen tied with Yusuke Urameshi from YuYu Hakusho.

    If anyone is interested in the series then I suggest you guys to first read the manga first, if not, then watch till the end of Kyoto Arc, the rest are fillers.
    Also, there is a live action movie as well, it's honestly good and better than the all other adapted movies like Shingeki no Kyojin and Dragon Ball Evolution.
