    Me quedo sin palabras al tratar de describir este anime, su nivel artistico es increhible la historia es sobervia, los dialogos son poesía pura, el romance es casi Sheakspeariano, los personajes son inolvidables. Despues de haber visto la serie de tv la cual está increhible aqui ...( read more)se puede ver lo que ocurre antes del inicio de esta serie; cuando Kenshin Himura era conocido como Batousai o Destazador y los sucesos que lo llevaron a ser el Rouronin que juro ya no matar, simplemente un clasico.

    This Movie has made a 'Mark' in my heart. The fighting and the graphics were amazing, the way the story was told was beautiful. It's a action pack, heartbreaking Tale about a young samurai who learns the truth beyond his killings. If your a true Anime fan then this is for you.

    Perhaps one of the most important anime ever made, almost Shakespearean in structure and equal to the world's greatest films in terms of human drama.

    this movie was my first taste of rurouni kenshin, and definitely not my last! this movie fills in many of the plotholes left behind by the incomplete TV series, as well as making for an amazing story
