Representaion As Books Rurouni Kenshin, Volume 01 (Rurouni Kenshin #1)

Packed with action, romance and historical intrigue, Rurouni Kenshin is one of the most beloved and popular manga series worldwide. Set against the backdrop of the Meiji Restoration, it tells the saga of Himura Kenshin, once an assassin of ferocious power, now a humble rurouni, a wandering swordsman fighting to protect the honor of those in need. 

A hundred and fifty years ago in Kyoto, amid the flames of revolution, there arose a warrior, an assassin of such ferocious power he was given the title Hitokiri: Manslayer. With his bloodstained blade, Hitokiri Battosai helped close the turbulent Bakumatsu period and end the reign of the shoguns, slashing open the way toward the progressive Meiji Era.  Then he vanished, and with the flow of years became legend.

In the 11th year of Meiji, in the middle of Tokyo, the tale begins. Himura Kenshin, a humble rurouni, or wandering swordsman, comes to the aid of Kamiya Kaoru, a young woman struggling to defend her father's school of swordsmanship against attacks by the infamous Hitokiri Battosai. But neither Kenshin nor Battosai are quite what they seem...

Piece Out Of Books Rurouni Kenshin, Volume 01 (Rurouni Kenshin #1)

Samurai X is one of my favorite animes ever. It tells the story of a former assassin seeking atonement for his role in the end of the Shogunate and the restoration of Imperial power in Japan during the the 19th Century. Although his kills were all done in the context of revolution and survival, all the deaths done by his hands as caused a huge stain on his soul.Samurai X is actually an English dub of an anime based on the manga Rurouni Kenshin by Nobuhiro Watsuki. Mangaka Watsuki wanted a

Kenhin Himura is not your typical Shonen (boy's) manga hero. He's not a spunky teenager (he's actually pushing 30) he's not on a quest to be greatest ninja/pirate/karate champ of them all, and he doesn't get pumped up and excited for a fight. In fact, Kenshin seems to be what your traditional rock-headed fight-loving shonen protagonist might become after the end of a series; he's had his share of battles and just wants to sit back and enjoy life. The bulk of the series occurs in 1878, ten years



Wow! I really liked this book! It's way better than the anime, it let me get a deeper look into just how sweet of a person Kenshin is! I would definitely reccommend this series to any anime/manga lover.

It was pretty good better than some I've read.

Ruroni Kenshin is a seriously solid series. I'm not sure there are many that could withstand the test of time like this one. Even from the very first manga volume, it's clear that the characters are well defined and believable while the story is equally trustworthy and interesting. This series is definitely worth reading.

After beginning to watch anime recently, I decided to try reading some manga. Okay, to be honest, it wasn't entirely that way. I had thought of reading manga before as I had thought of watching anime before, but I had the typical misconception of these genres. You know, that it was all lewd sexual content and humongous mecha. A little dumb of me to assume such nonsense? Admittedly, yes. That's what has steeped into the Western culture, this lie about anime and manga. Anyways, some good manga was
