i have alot of mixed reactions about this one. the only good part in this was the begining like 5 episodes and all of legend of kyoto part. other than that it really seemed like a kids show and i got annoyed of the moral crap in it and being able to guess what is going to happen. what also annoyed me was this kenshin can sence when people are around and do alot of other strange stuff that was kinda stupid. as for the fighting i found that it resembled dragon ball z....thats a bad thing. in the fighting there was usually 2 things. kenshin would rape the others, or kenshin would do a lot of talking, have like 2 seconds of fighting and do somemore talking...i perfer samurai champloo's fighting system much more than the rurouni kenshin one...as for the part i loved...if legend of kyoto was alone, i would give it a 10/10 becaus i just loved it except for the fight with makoto shishio (ill explain some of it later). what really got me into this was the action was not only talking but actual fighitng. n also i loved the fact that kenshin became battosai again. another thing i loved about it was hajime saito and sojiro the tenken. these characters were really awsome and all the other characters felt like they had some realness to them. but the thing i hated was makoto shishio and that girl...the girl was happy to die?? wtf...n the fighting went back to talking again in that...another thing i loved about the series was the humor. i thought the humor was great and done in an appropriate way. thats really about it. the ending was pretty crappy...but maybe the ovas will redeem it.

over all... 8.4/10
