Just watched this and can't believe I waited so long.

10/10 OVA. Better than most shows that air these days. Also an incredible OST.

So glad they did that arc of the story justice since Kenshins past with Tomoe is my favorite.

>>153605684
>Just watched this
You sound new to anime. Are you?

>>153605684
No, it was fucking shit.

>>153605738
I'm about to watch Reflection but I dont know how anything could adequately follow up such a masterpiece.

Still looking forward to it though

It set my expectations for the franchise too high and now I can't enjoy anything else rurouni kenshin.

Also, I wish this director had done more in the same vein.

>>153605802
No, I've been watching anime for years.
I just put this off and I'm ashamed for it

>>153605831
Please explain

>>153605898
Forced drama.

>>153605922
Fucking how was it forced?
The amount drama was completely appropriate for the situations presented which all had good reasons to be there too.
I'd go so far as to say that alot of the most dramatic moments had a lot of subtlety.

>>153606000
I haven't even watched it.
Saying "forced anything" is the easiest bait you can use.

>>153606033
I hate you.
But I hate myself more for taking the bait.

>>153605851
Just watch the sequel :)

I remember back in the time it was released a lot of casualfags were protesting over the 'ugly' artstyle.

>>153605684
Don't be that guy who has tons of things still in their backlog then freak out claiming something you just watched is the greatest of all time

I mean it is the greatest of all time, but still.

>>153605684
do i need to watch the other kenshin to be able to appreciate it

Because it was a pointless prequel to tell a story that didn't really need to be told and quite frankly diminishes the ending of the series it was spawned from by spelling it out plainly for idiots

>>153607136
No. Its an origin story so you dont need any context.

>>153605684
Trust and Betrayal is 100% pure Kino. Honestly glad to hear that you finally watched it anon.

It's not pointless. The story is great and honestly the only must watch kenshin.

Do you REALLY not like TAB?

How is that even possible?

Are you making a joke? I don't find it amusing.

Is the actual series even worth watching? How does it compare to the OVA's?

>>153607605
When IS tv anime worth watching? Especially when it comes to adaptations?

>>153607647
I liked Prison School

>>153607533
>resorting to shit memes

Excellent argument anon.

>>153607533
>the existence of something worse doesn't make this good
not but it does make the argument it ruins the ending retarded, since it was ruined anyway

GOOD GAME

It's a bizarre situation, the OVA is such a piece of art while Kenshin is a good shonen anime but not on the same level

Moreover watch this OVA then put in episode 1 of Kenshin and you'll be sorely disappointed

>>153607605
Not at all.
