Rurouni Kenshin 2023 Episode 1 Review
The first episode of Rurouni Kenshin 2023 delve into the life of Kenshin Himura. Kenshin’s violent past as an assassin is the first thing we discover.
We then quickly move on to the present, which is Tokyo in the eleventh year of the Meiji Era, where Kenshin meets Kamiya Kaoru. When Kaoru believes Kenshin is a notorious criminal, Hitokiri Battosai, they have a conversation that reveals Kenshin’s true identity.
They were interrupted by a nearby disturbance. In the hunt for the impostor Hitokiri Battosai rumored to be causing trouble and stabbing police officers with his sword, Kaoru rushes into the riot.
Kaoru bravely engaged the offender with his Dojo sword while wounded. She is stopped by Kenshin when more police reinforcements arrive. The perpetrator quickly escaped after having more police support.
Kenshin tells her to take care of her wound and not go on trips that night. The criminal’s actions discredit Kaoru’s father’s Dojo organization. Kaoru is determined to arrest the con man who is using the nickname Battosai to preserve her father’s legacy and prove the worth of her Dojo.
While acknowledging Kaoru’s point of view, Kenshin places more emphasis on saving lives than on protecting a particular swordsmanship technique. Kaoru’s father created the sword technique known as Kamiya Kasshin Ryu.
Kaoru is displeased and angry when he catches the killer in his father’s way. Kaoru displayed his intellectual understanding of current market developments during their subsequent meeting.
Although she was unable to actively pursue the culprit, her strong investigative mind was on display. In the key scene, Kenshin is the only one there when facing the alleged criminal and his henchmen. It’s clear that cultivating her brain and analytical skills could be the key to her success.
While acknowledging Kaoru’s point of view, Kenshin prioritizes saving lives over protecting a certain swordsman skill. Kaoru’s father invented the style of swordsmanship known as Kamiya Kasshin Ryu.
Kaoru is outraged and disappointed to see someone murder in his father’s style. Kaoru then demonstrates his knowledge of the recent changes in the market.
In the manga, Kenshin meets Kaoru in Tokyo and falls in love thanks to his upbeat attitude. Kaoru begged Kenshin to stay, her eyes filled with tears expressing her sincere love for him.
