The OAV wasnt written by the creator of Kenshin, and he said it himself, he prefers happy endings himself. Int Reflections, they were all characterized POORLY. Kenshin had no desire to wander anymore, and they made him so in the OAV. The true creator and teller of kenshins story left it off on a happy note, and any real kenshin fan knows the real ending, and disreguards this OAV as an AU telling.
I myself do not agree with it, as its severe lack of everything, especially with the jinchu arc in the manga. The tv series and manga are RK to me, nothing else exists, but thats just my opinion, of course. I see Kenshin and Kaoru as happy grandparents myself, later on down the road.
Like the manga creator said, he left it off to the fans own imagination!
