I blame this on my recent addiction to anime Rurouni Kenshin. I started watching the entire anime on YouTube and I was really hooked. Actually what made me start was the movie! Part 2 of the second movie was coming out and I wanted to know what was gonna happen. Not really a good move because after watching the anime, the movie really can't compare.
I absolutely loooove the anime. And I love Kenshin the character! He's such a righteous, just and strong individual. At the same time, very attractive because he has that 'I was very bad before but now I've turned I over a new leaf' thing going on lol. And he can be so silly and funny sometimes, thanks to the humorous bits of the anime. His voice is soooo attractive too! *loves*
There are a few scenes that I absolutely adore:
1. The fight between Kenshin and Saito. It's super exciting! I loved watching how they fought as they it was still during the revolution and how Kenshin morphed into his Battousai mode. It was -really- cool. No matter how much Saito hit him, he just walked really coolly (with that somewhat dark aura) towards him. It was a sneak peek of what Kenshin could have been before: A cold, merciless killer. Such a sharp contrast to his warm character post revolution.
2. The most well known scene of Kenshon bidding farewell to Kaoru before he left for Kyoto to look for Shishio Makoto. It's the most touching scene ever! Him suddenly embracing her and thanking her simply. And saying sayonara. It was a short scene but a really powerful one. Yes I actually cried at this bit. I could actually feel the unspoken love they had for each other. It broke my heart when Kenshin said he had to be a wanderer again. Man, I'm such a sucker for such stuff.
3. When Kenshin was learning the final Hiten Mitsurugi move from his Master and realized his strong desire to live in that one instant. His will to live for the sake of others like Kaoru.
4. Fight scenes with Aoshi Shinomori and Sojiro. Both exciting and touching at the same time. I really like how the anime explains how the 'bad people' actually became how they were and that there was always a reason. Mostly due to betrayal or the path of revenge. Or that they had such hard lives that they never saw the light. This really makes sense to me. No one is born a bad person. And who you meet really shapes you as a person. Just like how Sojiro became who he was because he met Shishio and things might have been different if he met someone like Kenshin. And Kenshin was how he is probably because of his master.
5. Love between Shishio and Yumi. While Shishio is really badass, I like how the anime showed the love between Shishio and Yumi. A bit twisted but still it felt kind of real. And Yumi's final sacrifice for Shishio was actually touching to me! Lol.
Well, these are just a few favorite scenes or bits off the top of my head. Might be more!
I just really love the anime hee. More than Natuto and Bleach for some reason!
