Watch the fucking trailers fam. Live action anime tends to suck because of monsters and ghosts, this is all practical combat with minimal wire usage for jumping and shit. Look at this behind the scenes video.

The saga comes full circle with this 5th film and it is consistant in being a faithful realistic adaptation of the Rurouni Kenshin story. To my knowledge only the Japanese Death Note live action movies are as faithful to the source material, the 5 Rurouni Kenshin movies always rank high for quality and faithfulness to the original work.

I own the first 3 movies on Blu Ray, the last two I have not found available on Blu Ray yet, saw Rurouni Kenshin The Finale a week ago, will be watching Rurouni Kenshin The Begining later in the first week of Aug. 2021.

He got caught with underage porn in his office. Apparently it barely affected his career, though.

Yes the guy who wrote the manga was caught with child pornography, he is a fucking scum bag but his work on Kenshin is a "separate the art from the artist" thing for me. I hate the asshole for being a pedophile and he should have gotten atleast 10 years in jail(he's not in jail, he is quite free and making new work) but hating the writer does not mean you hate what he made as Kenshin is one of the best manga's that has stood the test of time.

When ya'll say its faithful to the original, does that mean the finale is the same as the anime?
Where Kenshin gave Kaoru aids and got amnesia but was trying to find her and they died like 10 feet apart without knowing it?
Cause that sucked. Like I think the voice acting and animation and stuff was bad too, I don't know; I don't want to remember.

It was like a movie or OVA or whatever, after Shishio. Way later, actually, obviously.

Now you're getting me confused with the sequel, Rurouni Kenshin: The Hokkaido Arc, but it seems apparent you're talking about OVAs. I thought the Hokkaido arc was over but...
On November 21, 2017, Watsuki was charged with possession of child pornography. That same day, Shueisha suspended publication of new chapters of The Hokkaido Arc beginning with the January 2018 issue, which was released on December 4, 2017.[10] The manga resumed serialization in the July 2018 issue, released on June 4, 2018.[11] The series began a two month hiatus with the July 2021 issue that went on sale in June, and is set to return in August with the September 2021 issue

So yeah.

That's where cartoon network ended it. There were like 20+ episodes more with no real central villain or anything iirc.

That 6 episode spin off thing, the first 4 episodes is movie 5. Episode 5 is movie 4 I think. Episode 6 is what you didn't like, these movies didn't touch that.

Distribution rights are a bitch, we're only getting the final 2 of 5 total on Netflix. You can stream the others on Amazon if you don't mind spending a few bucks.

Nah, I wouldn't mind spending a few bucks. I saw a few episodes of the Kenshin anime back in the day, but honestly the whole thing seems cooler as live action with a slight anime flair/vibe.

I'm actually excited for this. Kenshin's origin story is one of my favourite in all of anime.

That bullshit is not canon, it was not made by the creator of Kenshin and he has said it is non canon years ago and now.

The OVA was created by someone else, it is like Dragon Ball GT in that it is fan fiction.

Like the original Dragon Ball creator made Dragon Ball Super the guy who created Kenshin made new material that is actually canon.

Okay so I'm uh...a bit confused about something with The Beginning movie

In the end when the war ends and Kenshin puts down his sword, Saito is there telling Kenshin that it's not over. Except Saito was there earlier in the movie with the Shinsengumi right? And that actor looked significantly older than the Saito in the ending. What was up with that?

When they made the original movie they did not know if they were making more or not, the footage is from the first movie made in 2011 or 2012. Pretty much they came full circle but back then no one knew they would be part of a 5 movie deal.

The Finale, and The Beginning were made in 2020 so a few years have passed but atleast the full story has been told. Fans were hoping that Trust and Betrayal which is based on the manga which is the movie The Beginning would be made though even back in 2012.

@Touch

Here's a select few scenes from the first four movies. If you watched the anime you should recognize them all. You'll see the age differences clearly.
