Summary: Rurouni Kenshin arc not up to usual standards
Review: It truly pains me to give this DVD such a rating as I am a diehard fan of Ruroken. However, this arc hardly follows the rest of the Rurouni Kenshin theme. Most of the time when a particular enemy used something like "magic" to attack, he was quickly proven to only have been using some sort of illusion or trickery. In this arc they go against that and the enemies now seem to have real "magic" which they use with some sort of ruler looking devices that they hold up. The cast of Ruroken end up having to fight a person who is capable of making lakes boil, and trees to change season's instantly and go from green to autumn leaves. That and Kaoru and Yahiko hardly show up, as Kaoru becomes sick and Yahiko looks after her. I almost thought that I was looking at another anime when I watched this.However, if you are a big Ruroken fan, I suggest you watch it anyway. There is a small Kenshin & Kaoru bit (Kaoru gets hurt, and Kenshin has to find some sort of special water that will cure her from the "magical attack" she suffered) However, episode 95 should be the absolute ending episode. Kenshin and Kaoru go visit a grave on an island somewhere for a day. (no, not Tomoe's grave) While I found the ending a slight let down because there was no significant romantic part, there is slight romance and it truly is a happing ending without the feeling of finality (if this makes sense). If you get this DVD at all, get if for episode 95, in Japan it was never even aired on TV, people had to buy the VHS tape seperately. Again, if you like Ruroken I suggest you buy it anyway because it's the last arc, just don't expect too much from it, afterall, this arc wasn't at all part of the original manga/comic by Watsuki.

Summary: Way to ruin the series...
Review: to be honest, this arc did not make any sense. it just doesnt add up with the storyline.
anyway, what happened to the Jinchuu arc? do yourself a favor and skip it unless you are a really hardcore fan.

Summary: Well they finally stopped making profit
Review: Well, whatever company did the animated series of RK finally stopped making profit. Thank god, because these filler episodes are terrible compared to the real Rurouni Kenshin created by Watsuki. However, the real reason I bothered to write this review was to prevent people from going off and watching the second OVA (US Title: 'Reflection', 'Seisouhen' in Japanese) based on Mr. Nakamura's review thinking that they're watching the "true" ending of Rurouni Kenshin. The only format the "true" ending of Rurouni Kenshin is currently in, is Manga (Japanese comic). It was never animated, probably will never be animated, and 'Reflection' is just as much a butchery of the series as the filler episodes were. ("True" being defined as written by the origional creator of Rurouni Kenshin, Watsuki Nobuhiro). To give you an idea of how much of the original Rurouni Kenshin was unanimated, there are 255 chapters in the original manga version of RK (not including an extra chapters, or bonuses) of which, about 150 were adapted into anime. About 100 have yet to be animated, and probably never will be, despite being arguably the best part of the Rurouni Kenshin saga. For those who can acquire the mangas and have watched the series, you'll want to read from chapters 152 onward to get the rest of the story, also known as the "Jinchuu Arc". Contrary to popular belief, Seisouhen is not an animation of the "Jinchuu Arc", though it does show some brief scenes from it. Nor was it written by Watsuki or based on any story-line that he wrote. I assume it comes from the same monkies that wrote the plot-lines to the filler episodes.

Summary: The Semi-final ending to Rurouni Kenshin
Review: While I didnt like the whole Feng shui ... or whatever its called episodes i believe that the RK series ended very nicely. I had to buy this dvd just for episode 95, because the boxsets i bought only went to episode 94... That really made me angry, but i belive that it was worth dishing out 15 dollars to see Kenshin and Karou finally start sharing their feelings. However i do have to say something that is bothering me. All the people who gave this dvd a bad review because it was so different from the manga. If you dont like the way the anime is, then stick to your manga. Dont compare the two. Either you read or you watch. Also i think everyone should go see samurai x reflection. Because for fans of the ANIME that is the ultimate depressing ending.
