Summary: Himura Kenshin is a vagabond with a dark past and sunny disposition. Not a ronin but a rurouni, he was never a samurai, but an assassin of utmost skill in the Meiji restoration, who in the turning point of the war simply walked away. His travels lead him to Tokyo in the 11th year of the Meiji era, where he befriends a female Kendo master, a former thief, a brawler and a doctor all with their own secrets. Together they fight off the enemies surfacing from the dark past that Kenshin cannot escape.

The Romance of The Meiji Era

A light hearted, though sometimes poignantly honest look at life during the turbulent Meiji Era. RuroKen was one of the first animes I've ever watched. The main storyline is interesting as we deal with characters reacting to social and political upheaval. Certainly, that's not so rare in anime but the fact that this takes place during one of the most important moments in Japan's history makes it unique. I only have a few problems with this series. One, that it was cut too short and as a result of that, there's almost an even ratio of fillers to main storyline episodes. The main story arc's fight scenes are some of the best I've ever seen and the atmosphere and cinematography are really amazing. FYI, there'll be a new anime remake of one of the main arcs (Kyoto Arc) and a live action movie, so stay tuned.
