Posted on at


You may already be familiar with the character of the anime, Rurouni Kenshin or known as Samurai X in Indonesia. Story Hitokiri Battōsai (Battōsai the murderer) is indeed interesting to follow, especially after the lift in the Live Action in 2012 there were not watching it You? Consider just the review below.

With the background of the life of Japan in the Meiji Restoration, Kenshin Himura (Takeru Satoh) vowed not to kill again and choose to use the sword to protect the profits of many people. Ten years after his last fight, Kenshin disappears and restoration goes well in which Japan did modernization in all fields. In the Meiji era samurai are also not allowed to carry weapons. Even in this film, the director (Keishi Otomo) successfully visualized with either all elements of Japanese history is very thick.

The story continues when that has become Rurouni Kenshin (vagabond) meets Kaoru Kamiya (Emi Takei) in Tokyo, who is looking for a man named Battousai. Originally accuse Kaoru Kenshin as Battousai, but Kenshin after his show Sakabatou (reverse-edged katana) Kaoru finally realized that he was not the Battousai.

On the other hand Kanryu Takeda (Teruyuki Kagawa) ordered Udo Jin-e (Kouji Kikkawa) to bring Takkani Megumi (Yuu Aoi) who refuses to make opium and asked for protection at the Kamiya dojo. Unfortunately, a variety of characters such as Sagara Sanosuke (Munetaka Aoki) and Yahiko Myojin (Taketo Tanaka) feels just a complement of the story in this film. In contrast, further deepening the story elements of life Kenshin, Kaoru, and Megumi.

For lovers of anime may be a little less satisfied with grooves made ​​in his live action, because it was quite a rush. The script writer Otomo and Kiyomi Fujii did much to change the storyline in the anime version. As an example of how Jin-e that should work for Kanryu, which should be filled by a character Shinomori Aoshi. But it tasted quite understandable, especially with a duration of about 130 minutes the film feels quite difficult to adapt to the overall plot is in the anime, but overall the film is very interesting to follow until the end of the story.

Art material presented also spoil the eyes of the audience, although the portions are not too much. Overall Rurouni Kenshin Live Action is worth watching before you guys waiting for the next sequel that will air this month in Indonesia amid titled Rurouni Kenshin: Kyoto Inferno. Yangmudacom own team provide value 4/5 for the first series. Well, if we wait for the next sequel can pay complete deficiency in the first film.
