Rurouni Kenshin is the whole deal. It is missing a little something, a bit in plot and music and animation, but together is very special. I have to say that this anime drew empathy from me so often. This is the ONLY anime to ever penetrate my dreams. Not only, we as viewers are even educated a little and made to think and to feel. I cannot say that I was profoundly touched, but I was touched either way. And as I said, it was special.

The best thing I can say about Rurouni Kenshin is that it was so well-rounded. Even if it was missing a little bit here and there, every element (plot, art and sound) were on equal levels. No one thing overpowered the other that I can remember. The teams responsible for this anime, Studios Gallop and Deen, created entertaining equilibrium.

I really love the conclusion of this anime. And i really cried my heart out at the ending. Kaoru's love was soo powerful that she could even sense Kenshin's presence. And even though Kenshin's memory is failing him so badly, he doesnt fail to remember Kaoru. This proves that unlike Tomoe, Kaoru's love was irreplaceable and stronger.
All in all i think this, in the end is a story of love & sacrifices. The people behind this animation/story must have put in alot of effort into putting in emotions and tear-jerking moments. It isn't easy to create such a situation so i really applaued them to be able to succeed in it. Ruruoni Kenshin Seisohen is a story worth re-watching. Ah, do prepare loads of tissues cos you'll need them!

So..in the end..

"Oro??!!" As wierd as it sounds, this word/sound/expression is actually the source of humour in this anime. It is a famous word said by kenshin when there is a cofusion or something wierd has occurred. The filler episodes are the funny ones. There are many with Kouru on the verge of killing the three men for living off her without much contributions to the household except kenshin. Ken-san does HOUSEWORK!! It is side-splitting enough to see kenshin the greatest swordsmen wearing an apron or doing the laundry. One reason this anime is enjoyable is the fact that it isn't too heavy. As kenshin meets many opponents and get into many life-endangering battles, the anime does not bombard the audience with one death battle after another without any breather in between.
