  • Kenshin is Batman

  • Love the music and LOOOOVEEE the AMV/Anime

  • so wait im watching ruroini kenshi wtf is this im liek episode 8 not os far in but pls soem oen explain or help!

  • wow lol what kenshin is this? xD complete diff thing from what i saw o.O

  • @UrSoMeanBoss this is the Kenshin b4 he met all the other ppl, this is wen he was younger, just watch Samurai X. its good. =}

  • I like it so much! Kinda suitable the song and Kenshin!

  • Very very good.Check out mine

  • This amv made me want to see the anime... Awsome... <3

  • blind guardian is awesome, and i need to watch this anime, but atm it looks cool

  • Just finished the OVA ,how Kenshin met Tomoe and how she sacrificed herself ..

  • Stop hitting on the change of direction the OVA took from the manga, it was artfully done, beautiful, and much more realistic than the disney ending the manga had

  • @serenadesilhout Except that Kenshin out of character abandoned his wife and child.

  • @sirensbane17 he didn't abandon them if you watch and listen carefully. He was too weak to get back (hence why he needed Sano's help to get back)

  • @serenadesilhout I wasn't really talking about the last time; he had to go to the war and he had trouble getting back. That I understand. I was talking about how they say he went wandering again several times during his marriage. Kenji is obviously very bitter about it; Kenshin had a duty to stay with his family.

  • @serenadesilhout And plus, he allowed Kaoru to infect herself with the same sickness as he had. That seems dramatically out of character. If he really cared about her, he wouldn't have let any harm come to her, regardless of whether she wants to be "closer" to him or not. The OVA does have some beautiful scenes and some haunting scenes and was very well-animated, but I did not like Kenshin's characterization.

  • @sirensbane17 its a fair criticism. Some people will like what was done in the OVA, and other people won't like what was done. The creator of kenshin (don't remember his name) didn't like the ending, but many others like what was done. That's just how things are.

  • @serenadesilhout Stop complaining lol the end of the OVA and the end of the manga are too different lol but I like more the ending of the manga than the ending of the OVA U.U

  • has anyone read yahiko-no sabato?

  • <3 traumhaft

  • Someone know what is the song used for the Intro?

  • never saw the OVA read most of the manga liked the anime a lot better don't get me wrong I like the manga but the anime you get to at least see the action in somewhat of real time, also what is the song in the beginning I know that is not part of "And the Story ends". Sano is Kick Ass, Kenshin is also Kick Ass but I like him better in his Battousai state.

  • @Manofvalor555 the song in the beginning before "and the story ends" is the opening to another blind guardian song "Bright Eyes"

  • what does OVA stand for?

  • @DarkSith6 Original video animation

  • I love this AMV too. :) Great anime, great song - what could I want more- nothing. :P

  • is this OVA by the same person who did the original series?

  • this anime has never end i wish it has a brand new season

  • The animation on the OVAs are gorgeous. SAD, but gorgeous.

  • I wish I could fight like that. All I have left to say is DAMN! This one needs a new hobby...

  • Wow, those are some sharp swords.

  • i fucking love this video ive watched it so much......

  • nice but you still have to work a lil bit at sincronizing song with what is happening in your movie.

  • Tis a great OVA. A bit sad at the end. Kenshin had it rough through his life! He had a happy ending though...at least in the manga...

  • i acknowledge no other ending except the one in the manga...the Reflection OVA never happened in my opinion...

  • Indeed...that's the way it should be

  • @Zarkovagis9 i agree wat da fuck was dat dey turned da series into a fucking soap in reflection kenshin get married dieing haveing a son falling in love wat da hell was dat crap

  • @Zarkovagis9 very true

  • @Zarkovagis9 what was the ending for the manga ?

  • @Kazekage5th basically, Kenshin is happy, has a child with Kaoru and it's all hunky dory. It's cheesy, but the entire time, you just want Kenshin to finally find some peace from his violent past. He gets it in the manga but then Reflections comes out and says that he dies from leprosy in Kaoru's arms after leaving her to go wandering. Even the mangaka hated the ending of Reflections.

    FYI

  • @Zarkovagis9 I kow this but what was the ending for the Manga ?

  • @Kazekage5th the last chapter takes place 5 years later where Kenshin gives Yahiko his sword as his coming-of-age. He's married to Kaoru and has a child. And that's pretty much it...you should read it

  • @Zarkovagis9 the manga's always better and i also think the ova as a non cannon type thing

  • @DylanRabon yeah, that's how i view it...i'm happier this way...

  • @Zarkovagis9 You know I've been thinking about this comment for awhile and came to my own conclusion. Yes, Reflection was extremely saddening to watch as Kenshin was always meant to be the hero who came out on top. Nobuhiro Watsuki disapproved of Reflection but it was for that very same previously mentioned reason. That doesn't imply Reflection was a 'bad' OVA or even a 'bad sequel' to the legendary series.

    I thought it gave a much more beautiful and human-like finish to Kenshin's life story.

  • @Vilemk0 yeah, i guess so. i guess i was just angry at how depressing the OVA ended. It's not bad but i wanted Kenshin to have a happy ending...i'm a sucker for happy endings.

  • @oyeboy94 The one who made Rurouni kenshin in the first place disagreed with the ending and thinks kenshin deserved a good ending.

  • great conformity song meets story

  • I watched the OVA again after I saw this AMV XD

  • beautiful

  • honestly i recommend doing things in this order read the manga watch the first ova(one that takes place before the anime) watch the anime then watch the second ova(it takes place after the anime) and then be happy cuz u just blew alot of hours on a kick ass series

  • Did he have an old lover that died or something? At least that is what I understand with some other amv's. The animation seems different too.

  • Yep. The one in this vid Oo

    This is the prequel.

    Samurai X AKA Ruroni Kenshin Reminiscence.

  • The animation seems a lot different though. why did he kill so many people and why did he turn good?

  • well, it was politcal killing, so you can't say it was good or bad.

    but he was so torn with guilt over the killing and the backstory with his wife that he quit that life and became a drifter. of course the series will explain it better, especially the OVAs.

  • wow, is that really kenshin ? what's with the black hair, and he looks younger. i mean..i know it's him but....was this an ova or somthing ?

  • Yes it is in 4 parts dealing with kenshin's youth as Hitokiri Battosai

  • This is Samurai X OVA series of Rurouni Kenshin that gives us some background on Kenshin's past...also depending on which version of quality you watch, his hair will either be red or black all the way through both OVAs. ^_^

  • its the 1st seasons where hes a assasin or manslayer =) he realy changes lol

  • its from the samurai X movie if i remember correctly. before he stopped killing.

  • Looks like a badass anime.

    Then again almost anything looks good with blind guardian playing in the background :D

    But i'm serious this looks really cool

  • it is a pretty bad ass anime, but it cuts off before the final arc, so read the manga from then on to get the full story and the background story. or watch the OVAs, but i recommend the manga.

  • Samurai X is the official title in Brazil..

  • Samurai X and Rurouni Kenshin are one and the same. Samurai X is just an alternative title. In fact, Samurai X is the official title of the TV Series in Greece and Romania.

  • Samurai X is the prequel to Rurouni Kenshin so to say.

    It's while Kenshin Himura was Battosai, which he in "Rurouni Kenshin" used to be.

    Samurai X (Trust & Betrayal) = Prequel

    Aired: Feb 20, 1999 to Sep 22, 1999

    Rurouni Kenshin = Sequel.

    Aired: Jan 10, 1996 to Sep 8, 1998

    They were made like Star Wars to draw an example, Star Wars IV,V,VI was filmed before I,II,III.

    And that's the way these series were animated.

  • Samurai X is Rurouni Kenshin, and Rurouni Kenshin is Samurai X

    Samurai X was a name adapted.

  • rurouni kenshin=samurai x?

    i think no

    because the drawnings are diferent

  • Samurai X is b4 ruroini kenshin and maybe the style of drawing then was different from the time at which ruroini kenshin was made :P

  • Samurai X is Rurouni Kenshin. Samurai X has four episodes about Kenshin's Past, one movie, and "Reflections," which is a summary of the whole show.

  • so sad don't watch reflections if you don't want to cry or have a sad ending.

  • The most powerful ever...

  • wow niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeee ^^

  • Umm...Ruroni Kenshin and Samurai X are pretty much the same thing

  • its almost like they are different people though

  • they are sort of, they are different sides of the same coin.

  • Samurai X is the story of Kenshins past. Reflections is the end of the series. Two large OVA's made to look back and explain the entire show. Ruroni Kenshin was simply the animated TV series. Which left a lot of the details about Kenshins past out.

    Basically it's just a quick sum up of the entire series in two OVA's like I said.

  • loco este video esta buenisimo, me encanta samurai x

  • Lol the beginning is bright eyes isnt?

  • freakin amazing!!!

  • This isn't Rurouni Kenshin, it's Samurai X.

    :P

  • lol wonderful series....till it went to toonami they completely ruined it no blood just terrible

  • totally agree.

  • I love this band: there are so few amv on Blind Guarian's songs.

  • Great video but i've got one question. I can tell this is Rurouni Kenshin but why does it look different than what i've seen of the series??

  • its samurai x, 3 OVA movie's based on the series. it looks like this is the one that tells of kenshin's life as the battousai.

  • thxs, i watched it and then i found out that this vid came from it

  • no prob

  • @shadowscythe do you happen to know the name of these movies?

  • uh i think its samurai x trust, betrayal and i forgot the other one. just type in smaurai x to wikipedia

  • ah ty ive been a big fan of kenshin

  • no prob.

  • This is samurai X the original series when he was Baitosai

  • it looks different because this is the movie of when he was in his teen years. Samurai X: Trust and Betrayel, there is also another Samurai X movie that shows his life when he is married, has his son kenji and he dies.

  • great job doing this amv.

    Plz watch my to.

  • Extremely well made AMV. Very emotional.

  • Very nice! I have so got to watch this!! 5/5 and added to my favorites. ♥ Great job!! ♥

  • I love this video so much <3

  • yea that's so cool^^

  • It's like a tale - this video is done like that! Very impressive! :) I like it a lot!

  • Great job

  • Great!

  • so awesome

  • This is so awesome! Your video is he reason why I got into Blind Guardian in the first place. Rocks so muchhhh :D

  • EVERYBODY!!!!! look on myspace music and type Anime Fire. look up their song Venom. Venom by Anime Fire. maybe one of yal could make an amv out of that sng. hell maybe this guy who made this amv. which i still love!!!

  • I havent seen the movie yet, but the video makes it look great, plus I fuckin love Rurouni Kenshin. I'm also a swordsman myself, so the whole Uber righteous guitar solo section near the end of the song really pumps me up. its just such a great song. and only the opening is made with the song "Bright Eyes" by Blind Guardian. the actual song in the video is "The Story Ends". Such a great video.

  • the movie is really good!

  • my fav depressing music video. timing perfect

  • It's an OVA

  • that was a good video although i hate tomoe. I have to admit it was pretty good. Nice music to go with it. Created a tension in me.

  • poor Tomoe doesn't deserve your hate ;.;

  • This was a great amv, gotta check into the band now. Who was the opening made by, btw?

  • Blind Guardian as well: "Bright Eyes".

  • great great song,beautiful amv

  • I love kenshin and blind guardian, explosive combination!

  • very creative amv 5/5

  • *Dforceamazing* For some reason whenever I try to reply to someone, it doesn't... Anyways, that last post was Directed at him. Even though I've seen all the Samurai x series already, spoilers got to me before he did. Still, good to think about what you tell about someone before you open your fat mouth! Same as in the movies man, you don't tell the fucking ending!!! Lmao

  • This is such an awesome AMV and great song to, I just can't get tired of watching it!

  • can you tell me the titles of others samurai x movies?

  • That is not movies, are ovas

  • That is not movies, are ovas

  • what other ovas of samurai x do you know?

  • I know the ova of the video, the name is Samurai X: Trust & Betrayal and the other is... I think is Sensiouhen,

  • thanks

  • The final OVA is also known as Reflection.

    Trust and Betrayal focus on Kenshin's life prior to the anime series, and Reflection takes place after. Whatever you do, don't watch them in English. They didn't get the same voice actors so it sounds horrible. Yet, somehow, they managed to get the same Japanese voice actors. Go figure.

  • Samurai's refection is another OVA but it tells a story of what happens after the Rurouni Kenshin series and it is really sad *tears* it shows how... kenshin dies. :( I cryed so much!!!!!!

  • Wow, thanks for the spoiler ass hole.

  • i lol'd ^^

  • ...i learned a while back to not read the comments below about an anime that i didn't want spoiled. i already completed this anime so i read comments on kenshin amvs and episodes. but take my advice, if you r watchin a new anime and u hate spoilers...then don't read the comments

  • as did i

  • What's the song right at the beginning?

  • bright eyes....blind guardian

  • muy bueno

  • Good song. great video.

  • Ohhhhhhhh... Nice one

    I hate seeing kenshin beeing hurt...O_o

  • lol well you must not feel hate a lot then...

  • i thought this was Rurouni Kenshin - Reminiscence but i could be mistaken

  • Well, to be precise, Samurai X is the name that the translators gave the Rurouni Kenshin series in the USA. Anyway, I guess you could call it "Samurai X - Trust and Betrayal" but it really doesn't matter all that much, since Rurouni Kenshin and Samurai X is basically the same thing. This is an AMV on the Rurouni Kenshin OVA, which tells the story of Kenshin before the stuff in the anime take place.(just thought I should share the info)

    About the AMV - liked it, nicely done

  • this is not a part of the Rurouni Kenshin. it is called "Samurai X: Trist and Betrayal" and is considered by many to be the best anime of all time. Plz dont confuse it with the 90 something episode TV anime that was lame as hell

  • wonderful song and wonderful amv!!!

  • what episode or wich rurouni kenshin is 4:05

  • That is towards the end of the Samurai X movie Trust and Betrayal.

  • god job with the AMV blind guardian are masters

    pls check my AMV's

  • can someone tell me around which episode it gets this awesome? i´ve been watching for a while now but it´s pretty soft till now

  • this is one of the samurai-x movies try the manga i like it beter than both

  • The show starts to get a lot better when Kenshin accepts an assignment to go back to Kyoto to deal with a manslayer named his successer. He leaves everyone at the dojo behind and prepairs to become the manslayer one last time. Think around episode thirty five or so.

  • this are parts of the 1,2 & 3 ova

    u should check em out they kick ass!!!

  • haha this the OVA. not the series.

  • this is a really good structured amv...

  • Sheer awesomeness...

  • And the story ends

  • what is the name of this song?

  • click on my profile and check my rurouni kenshin amv ^_^

  • really really a great job... i like it so much, one of the best AMVs ever!

    thx 4 upload it, and share it :D .

    bye!

  • Anyway, I love this AMV. It's extremely well done, I've watched it 8 times today. XD

    Great job. Never heard the song before, but now that I have I can't get it out of my head. One of my favorite AMVs.

  • Spoiler - Trigun, Cowboy Bebop

    Haha, yeah, thanks alot TheVenerated. =P

    I don't think it'll be as sad as when Wolfwood or Spike died though. They were so awesome. ): I seem to find myself having a hard time getting attached to Kenshin, I don't understand why. He just doesn't seem to have much of a personality in the anime, I guess.

  • very few amvs own as much ass this one great job.

    HAVE A COOKIE, YOU DISERVE IT!!

  • loool

  • this is one of my favorite anime shows (next to Bleach)great job

  • HAHA, i agree with u there buddy, i love rk second only to bleach (and lately ichigo 100% dont ask why). But as for the amv, hell of a good job (and im glad they didnt do the lame amateur thing where they use the subbed version, something im guilty of myself)

  • great song and anime. I like many scenes from this amv

  • domo ordygoto

  • is this all after that season where he killed that bandaged guy in the end? thats the last one i evr saw

  • no this is the samurai X ova trust and betrayal there is also reflection witch fits in after the series and when he fight the bandages guy thats not the end there is "tales of the meiji" saga eps 63 - 95

  • can you please send me this song, somebody! i cant get it at all.

  • never mind

  • wats the song and whos it by

  • did kenshin love tomoe? i mean lik deep love

  • yup they loved eachother very much, i mean they got married after all and tomoe died protecting kenshin so.. yea

  • oh, arigato. ye, i kinda new he got married. so nothin ever happens between kenshin and kaoru? coz i read this page on wikipedia saying they get married and hav a kid or somethin and then he goes of and comes back and eventually dies in her arms???
