Rurouni Kenshin: Anime
built 274 days ago
Rurouni Kenshin is a bishonen delight that breaks the mold, in the same way that Rumiko Takahashi was successful at lambasting traditional anime. By circumventing the rules surrounding a story of this type, it has become the leader of the genre, for its originality and for its enthralling plot and characters.

The story of Rurouni Kenshin has found its ways into millions of hearts around the world. The anime takes place during the Meiji Restoration, when kenshin has become a lonely, wandering samurai who has been forgotten in all the commotion of the advancement of technology with guns.

The Rurouni Kenshin and Samurai X DVDs were released by Sony. For trivia buffs: Sony was actually the creator of DVD technology, but they have not, surprisingly, been pushing for animes to be released to DVD. If anything, they seemed against it for awhile. Not so much now, considering how popular the technology is.
