It's been forever and I'm too tired to go through all the character names and lists so forgive my lacking in that area. Basically for a quick read through and spoilers of the movie.


Everything in a nut shell aside from character introductions like Kaoru, that little kid that trains with her *Yama mahoji or something* This movie is based around the first arc of the anime where the *female doctor* makes Opium for the prick that hires that group of Samurai/Ninja (who are killed by a Machine Gun)as bodyguards that Kenshin fights.

They have other elements and characters from the beginning of the anime and all in all for a live action is wasn't to bad. I wish they would of spent more effort into special effects for Kenshins fight scenes. It feels under budget, but makes up in the historical essence of Japanese . The pace/cast of the characters and overall scenery of the movie is good. So with that said 4/5. Really wish they could find the means to really put in a good solid overall astounding adaption to an anime, like Neon Genesis :D
