Who died in this movie?
I didn't see this movie,so please answer me these questions:
Did Kenshin died at the end?
Did Karou died?
Did Sanoske died?
Did Yahiko died?
Did Kenji died?
Did Hiko( kenshin's master) died?
Did Enshi died?
DID ANYONE DIED?
Kenshin died in Kaoru's arms before the end credits rolled!!!!
As for Kaoru?? Who Knows??
Sanosuke Is still on his travels through the east (China - after locating and helping Kenshin).
Yahiko is happy and is still with the young girl from the Akabeko
Kenshins' master is training young Kenji (Kenshin and Kaoru's son) as well as advising Yahiko.
Kenji is seen post credits so is fine.
I HATE THIS OVA!!!
If your a fan of Rurouni Kenshin or the Trust & Betrayal OVAs avoid this at all costs.
It's just far too depressing.
It is completely out of place.
Whereas Trust & Betrayal had to be darker than the TV series, and the humourless, kurosawa-esque structure worked in their favour this is just wrong!!
It has soured my memory of one of the greatest shows ever made.
The TV series had everything. Action/Comedy, Samurai/Swordplay historical epic, Drama & Romance and the first two OVAs were exactly what we were all hoping for.
I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall at the meeting during which they decided to ruin the whole thing.
If the OVAs were stand-alone projects the all 6 parts over the three OVAs would play rather well it would bring a satifactory conclusion to the story between Kenshin,Tomoe and her brother.
I didn't personnally feel there was a need to disrupt the reletively happy ending of the series with the motion picture (movie) or reflections (OVA).
I'll never watch this again!!
Although the artistry is top-notch and the 5.1 (English) mix is excellent.
I agree. I did not like Samurai X - Reflection that much. But I will buy the Director's Cut when it comes out.
shareI think the whole thing should be consigned to an alternate universe history and a new ending commishioned.
How did the Manga end?
As I live in the UK I have not yet seen any of the original Manga.
I'd like to know which Kenshin fans prefer and how the story and tone differs?
What about Enishi? What happened in the battle between Kenshin and him?
And what about Megumi? Did she married to Sanosuke or did she died too?
I'm sorry about all these questions, but i'm just very curious.
But one thing is certain.I think that the anime series are way better than OVAs
,
because they have great humours in it. But the OVAs are just too sad and
confusing.
Here is a couple of questions too:
Did Saito died in the series?
Dd Saito young apprentice died?
Did Shishio burned to death and what did he said at the end?
Who else died? (in thegreat villains)

I agree. This was the best conclusion to a series that I've witnessed. Although it did end a bit on a depressing note, it was did make for a good semi-happy ending. He died in Kaoru's arms with a smile.
If he had lived, he would have ended up leaving again.
However, to all the people who wanted Kenshin to live or to have a new ending rewritten, remember what was said in the OAV by Megumi. Although Kenshin was extremely athletic, the degree of severity and frequency that he used Hiten Mitsurugi Ryuu became taxing on his body. Even Aoshi Shinomori remarked on the stress the body must suffer from using the Amakeru Ryu no Hirameki in the anime series is something to consider also.
Only in that version of things. In the original version, he was through with wandering.
Yes, it was taxing his body, but that wasn't enough to warrant giving him some infectious disease. That's not even realistic. The worst Kenshin would suffer from would be some kind of arthritis or possibly a heart condition which would have to be monitored.

for me, i havent watched the anime so i think the OVAs ARE AWESOME. yes, i was horribly depressed after both OVAs but im a sucker for sad stuff. i think they did a great job for both OVAs with a great OST and drawing. i personally find that the same Kenshin is way too different in the OVA especially Tsuiokuhen and the anime. i think the way they presented the OVAs suit the hitokiri's character better as the anime's abit too.. oro-ish(X just my opinion, though it's really cute to see him act that way! considering the fact that i'd started with the OVAs before everything first, seeing kenshin walk everywhere with huge purple eyes getting bashed up by so-and-so was a rather different atmosphere for me.
for the number of deaths your so curious about, no one died except kenshin (within kenshingumi, at least in Seisouhen) everyone else, they left us to go figure. i think kaoru wont last too long after that.
but i think seisouhen was a wonderful animation, even my mum was impressed(: well that is if you didnt watch the anime. if you did, i have no say. XD and tsuiokuhen was basically really realistic. makes kenshin somehow more.. real. yupp. my opinion!
I have seen the episodes , read the mangas, and saw the ova's
the foursegment ova depicting kenshin's young life is a masterpiece, I can't say anything bad about it
I don't know about this one. If you don't know kenshin it is useless. It is a fine reanimation of certain scenes from the show, but you have to have seen those episodes. But you don't understand anything about it when you haven't read the manga yet.
How far in the future is this? Twenty years?
Well Sanosuke couldn't go back to Japan, I won't spoil too much but in the manga he defeats some corrupt powerful people, but he is sought for that and that's why he doesn't come back with Kenshin.
What revolution was it exactly in China? Was it the 1894-1895 war between China and Japan?
I think it sucked how Kenshin had evolved. He was a poor father ( Kenji doesn't know him) , he barely remembers who he is , and the movie end with the great warrior falling down with his woman and dying???
