While it has been some time since this anime first hit the market, it has lost none of its appeal. The story of Kenshin, once a feared manslayer and his journey into humanity as well as those of the friends he makes along the way remains among my favorite anime ever. Rurouni Kenshin is beautifully animated, its cast studded with stellar voice actors. The English dub, while not quite on par with the brilliant performance of the Japanese original, adds an interesting and fascinating feature. This is a story for those who love adventures, learning a little about history on the way and adore simply wonderful, human, extraordinary characters
