Rurôni Kenshin: Meiji kenkaku romantan

The original anime adaptation was great, it's the first adaptation of Kenshin that I fell in love with. Then, I watched the movies with Satoh Takeru were awesome. Satoh will Always be the best live action Kenshin and Battousai. I was itching and hoping for a newer version anime for Kenshin. I haven't read the manga, but I understand they strayed pretty far from the source material in the 1996 series. Im hoping with this new version, they'll stay true to Kenshin's story and have more of a balance of characters. Im on episode 11, and so far there's more chemistry between Kenshin and Kaoru, Kenshin and Sano and all together the bond between all of them as friends. The Jin-e arch was amazing in this version, gave me chills seeing him revert to Battousai. Which, I think the actor they chose for the sub version does an incredible job as Kenshin and Battousai. Overall, I think this is a worthy, and very very good remake.

True to the manga...almost perfect except for the opening theme!!! Why oh why?! Hope they will not get the same artist or same genre for the op. Song in the next seasons.

And... crossing my fingers that the animation will be consistent all throughout.

Still is my favorite anime, made me very happy since it's been a while since I enjoyed one, glad they made a reboot and I'm looking forward to the Shishio and Enishi arcs.

Kenshin is love love love! Yaasssssss! This is how happy I am. Hahaha. Hope it will be appreciated by the generation today...where most animes are isekai related... it's time for a break.

Rurouni Kenshin, or Samurai X, is one of my favorite fictional stories, not just anime/manga. The anime of the nineties totally marked my generation, it is an epic with a very deep message, historical accuracy and great action.

This remake, based on the first episode, left me with very good impressions. Everything seems to indicate that it will be a completely faithful version of the original story, which is to be appreciated since said story is perfect. The animation and voice acting in general are very well done.

There is only one negative detail that I want to comment on, to my personal taste, the opening theme is horrible! It doesn't match anything with the style of the anime, it's a shame because the openings of the classic anime were very good. I was about to lower a note of the score for that, but the truth is a rather minor detail.

I'm glad that the new generations can now enjoy and learn from Kenshin Himura's philosophy, let's hope that everything continues on the right track and that they at least end up adapting all the content of the manga.

My dad always said, "Oh, Kenshin, Kenshin is awesome," and stuff like that. But I never had the patience to watch the old series. But I saw that this remake was released by an unknown studio, Liden Films, and I decided to watch it. I'm not kidding when I say I almost had a breakdown when I saw how good the anime is. Great animation, one of the best openings I've ever seen (the second one almost made me have another breakdown because the music was so addictive), good script... Did I mention the animation? Anyway, everything in this anime gives me enormous joy, especially the fights, because the satisfaction of seeing Kenshin beating everyone up is priceless. I would like everyone to watch it without fear, because besides being really good, it's an extremely competent reboot and a great alternative to study Japanese history, because the plot is literally centered on Ancient Japan. Thank you guys at Liden for the masterpiece.

This is a fantastic looking new appearance of an old friend. The updated graphics are incredible and I love how faithfully that are sticking to the story. I can't wait to see each and every episode. And I am ecstatic that Kenshin is available to this new generation. I hope they will love him and his story as much as I do. I'm super excited to see the new animation take on some of the more fantastic fights and storylines! I'm so glad Kenshin and the gang is back!!

It definitely kinda sucks that they're releasing one week at a time, but it also gives me something to look forward to, so I can't complain too much!
