Ruroni Kenshin is one of the best television cartoons ever made. Its characters are colourful and fun to watch, they're not your typical Shonen-cast of anime characters, and the fact that this series is a period piece makes it stand out from quite a lot of the other animes on the market. It's nothing like DragonBall Z, Naruto nor One Piece. THIS one focuses on Meiji-Period Japan; and a samurai who's vowed to never kill another soul again. This series is an appealing yet culturally- specific show that oddly works for a general audience. Its story is engaging, its direction fast-paced and never dull, and the voice-acting (of the Japanese cast) is pitch-perfect.This series is definitely worth a watch; even if you're not a hardcore anime fan!

Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Kenkaku Romantan (released in North America, Canada and various other countries as 'Rurouni Kenshin' and in various Asian countries as 'Samurai X') is a ninety five episode television series based on the manga written and drawn by Nobuhiro Watsuki. The anime series was directed by Kazuhiro Furuhashi.While not as violent and bloody as the OVA, this TV series features light-hearted comedy and action instead. The characters are funny and the animation style is cartoonish and doesn't take itself too seriously. The version aired on some TV channels but the DVDs are uncut and uncensored. If you can, BUY THIS SERIES! :) This has a lot of action and comedy and drama. You will be very happy you did! I give Rurouni Kenshin a 7/10

I liked a lot this anime series. It was very enjoyable to watch, and it had a very good plot (Which makes a perfect balance of action, comedy, drama and heartwarming moments) The characters from this anime were very likable and interesting, being very well developed.The animation starts being merely decent, but it gets better as the series advances. The art is pretty solid, with very cool and well made designs. The music was excellent. Despite some forgettable filler episodes, this was a very entertaining animation, with lots of virtues and memorable moments.Personally, I think that "Rurouni Kenshin" is at the same level that other great anime series such as "Trigun", "Wolf's Rain" and "Samurai Champloo".9.5/10

There is one word to describe Rurouni Kenshin, Superb. It really is the best of the best. It deserves to be at the top of the top list for animes. Season one one really great, it was mainly about Kenshin saving the day, he fight people with great streghths, pirates, And his own friends. Season two got better, not that 1 was to good to be true. But kenshin was sent to Kyoto to stop Shishio from destroying the meiji government. Shishio kills innocent people and believes the weak die and the strong live. Kenshin fights through juppengatana, Aoshi, Saito and Sishio. He meets Misao on the way. Even kenshin friends help. Season 3 was good, but not the best. I've only seen parts. I need to order it like right now. But its starts off the same as season 1. Fighting off bad guys. Then this dude appears to be the son of god and uses the hiten mitsrugi sonic sword techniqes(If you didn't know that what kenshin uses). Also it's a lot more of a romance.
