Although the series isn't as good later on, CN should play the whole thing. Yeah, after the Kyoto Arc, the anime wasn't as great, but the manga was (*coughs* The Revenge Arc *coughs*). That's because the manga wasn't finished infact, the creator was only halfway through the Revenge Arc during the Kyoto Arc's Japanese airing. After the Kyoto Arc there were a bunch of filler Arcs which did pretty much suck. The rating's went low and the anime series was actually cancelled. By the time the good parts were finished, the anime series was gone (with the exception of the Memory Arc which they later made into the Samurai X OVA as well as the post Revenge Arc which became the movie). Don't blame Mr. Watsuki though. As usual, a mangaka will do one to a few chapters a month (maybe a volume, but it depends on if it's in a manga mag like Shonen and exactly which mag) whereas there are usually 4 anime episodes per month (one weekly).

Kenshin's first love's little brother basically hunts down Kenshin for vengeance of his sister's death. ;D a lot of things happen though, so just read it for yourself.

Enishi! Whoo! The guy's pretty awesome when he's older, looks cooler, too.

Enishi! Whoo! The guy's pretty awesome when he's older, looks cooler, too. Yeah, he does. I was wondering why I saw pics of him, but he wasn't in the anime.

Yeah, Enishi was awesome, but I didn't really like him in Reflections. He was a bit of a crybaby. Thinking about Reflections, the Director's Cut is a must-see. They are quite a few interesting scenes including a certain wedding ceremony .

Never thought of that one, but it sounds like it could be uhh interesting.

I've read quite a number of pretty good KenshinxMisao fics and I do admit they'd be really cute together, but I don't believe there's any basis for the pairing. Misao obviously only has her heart set on Aoshi and Kenshin loves Kaoru.

;D they are really cute which is why I like them, but yeah the actual pairings belong together.

Agreed. Though, personally... I think AoshixKaoru or EnishixKaoru make cute couples, too. ;D

Not so sure about AoshixKaoru, but oh my gods I never thought of EnishixKaoru. That would be so good. Have you read any fics about the two?
