  • Samurai X:Reflection

    I know it was talked about previously in the topic: Here .

    But I just wanted to talk about it again. I saw part of Kenshin, prolly about to episode 20, then I saw the OAV's... Loved the OAV's better then the regular series... Stopped watching the regular series about episode 50 or 60, he had already met his Arch Nemisis, and so, the anticipation was lost u.u You can only watch Kenshin's 5 moves so meny times before you get bored with them... Yet I digress...

    I just had to say, I really liked Reflections, not as much as the OAVs mind you, but it was really good. The ending had me crying like a little baby ;.; (Ok, not really, but it was sad!) I just gotta reiterate, OMFG!!! It was sooooo sad It was so sad, I almost wished they didn't make them! So you could have wished they had a halfway happy life ;.; It would have been left up to your imagination, instead of telling us blow by blow how Kenshin 'atoned' for his sins u.u;;

    Everyone was SOOOOOOOOO cool in the two episodes as they returned. I meen like! They should have made more with them as old! They were pimp!! But no >.< They had to cronical the end of Kenshin's legend, and it was such a SAAAD end ;.; Did I mention I almost cried? Man... It was soo deep ;.; And like, as the credits rolled, they had Kenshin and Kaoru talking to each other. I almost cried all over again!! Man ;.; It was a tuff show...

    Man ;.;

    Anyone else seen the show? It is a MUST if you have seen Kenshin, it's the end of the series. The end of the TV series was so obvious a two year old could have ordained it... But this ending is totally diffrent ^^ As much as I hate it, it was alot more fitting. Just wish it was like 4 episodes instead of 2 ;.; I meen, like really, they made a new ending to tie up the loose ends of the old ending... AND made entirly new loose ends >.< How meen is that? A million bucks says they won't even give a second glance to Kenshin's child, Yahiko or that cool dude who had that big sword u.u And is now in china... Erm, yeah, what's his name ;; Anywho!! They were all so much cooler in this series then in the original, they should have done more with it ;.;


    ANYWAYS!! ^^ Anyone else have any thoughts on it? Complaints? Or gripes that I gave away to much? That's what happens when you read a review for a movie you've not seen!!

    Yes I have seen it and I love OVA's better than series.

    *SPOILERS*

    Karou's love for Kenshin is something I have never seen before I mean a woman knowning that he has a diesase and he is going to die and to let kenshin have sex with her is something I thought I was never going to see :sweat:

    my eyes were water when I saw the ending :sweat:

    I like Kenshin.... But I JUST love Enishi Yukishiro I mean come on... you gotta love his style. It is crazy how the STRESS got to him and his whole hair changed from black to sliver. Also the fact that he is kinda a physco is also cool in my list. ^_^;; you also gotta love his fighting sytle Garyu-Watoujutsu (self-styled watoujutsu) / Kyoukeimyaku ~.^

    *END OF SPOILERS*

      as i have said in previous topics regarding to Rurouni Kenshin, It is my FAVORITE anime.

      I have seen both OVA's and all of the tv series. It is true Lavian, that watching the same moves over does get kind of boring but at least they are total kick ass moves.lol

      ***SPOILERS AHEAD***

      My favorite episode was the one right before Kenshin faced off against Shishio when he fought Sojiro Seta. He is my favorite character. I loved how during the fight, Kenshin kept unlocking Sojiro's memories in a flashback type of way, that led to the young, lightning fast, swordsman's defeat. I think Sojiro is my favorite character because, even though many characters had the classic "my family was brutally killed 10 years ago" type of past, Sojiro had to fight his oppresive "family" to survive. As Shishio had told him "the weak will die and the strong will live"
      Sojiro became void of all emotions in order to survive. I also liked how after eh knew that Shishio had been defeated, he decided to turn his life around and become a Rurouni like Kenshin.

      I liked the Seisouhen OVA's (the ending ones) because every thing that Kaoru Kenshin Sano and the others have endured during the 95 have finally ended. but not necesarily in a happy way. Kenshin's body is deteriorating due to the harshness of the Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu fighting style and Kaoru is sick.

      As the old ways die out and the new age begins, the people trapped with the old ways die out as well....

      It was a very touching ending and i was sad to see it end.

      I think it would be cool if they started a new series folllowing young Sojiro and his wanderings.

      Rurouni Kenshin is a must for all "fuedal japan anime" fans, and even for those of you who dont particularly like them.
      Have a nice day!

        :dead: ouch
        what an ending
        Karou is such a downass chick, she rode with Kenshin til the very end
        if u think reflections was good and the OAVs try reading the manga
        its real good as to where there are more fights and characters and those two little girls arent there, and god dammit there are more fights and its a bit darker once everyone is older
        a way more f-ed up story than the ending of relections
        i dont know if thats a spoiler or not, sorry
        "no matter where you go you are what you are playa
        and you can try to change but that's just the top layer
        man...you was who you was when you got here"
