THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- First episode was basically awesome. Great way to start off the series. The voice actors aren't all that great but that shouldn't take away your excitement from a great episode.  |

That's good to hear. This is too good of a start for it to be bad. |

This episode was very well done. It created suspense and mystery around Kenshin's character. The nonlinear storytelling was also very original. (they were not flashbacks) |

Awesome. That was just really good. Excellent non-linear storytelling and amazing fight scenes juxtaposed with the child Kenshin. Looking forward to the next episode!  |

Oh, I actually liked it. =] Didn't think the animation would be this good and it seems like a great way to have a peek into the Rurouni Kenshin franchise.      |

Very well done. The animation is superb, and the story kept me glued to the screen the whole way through. |

Definitely a great start!!! The animation was great, action was tense, as well as the atmosphere throughout. I understand why this is rated so highly, and I'm only on the first episode. |

Fantastic. YouTube - I post all my gameplay (Kingdom Hearts, so far) videos here (mostly boss fights), I am currently running through Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix on Proud Mode. I am aiming to catalogue all boss fights in 1080p HD using PCSX2 to emulate and Fraps to record. Give my videos a watch and some constructive criticism. Thanks. |

i liked it, great animation and suspense. fantastic nonlinear storytelling. also great that the samurai, okay mainly kenshin, do what they are supposed to do: strike down their enemies and kill them, unlike in most anime, especially of the shonen variation, where the enemy is simply defeated, but not killed <.< "Truth is always a delusion." - Friedrich Dürrenmatt |
