Rurouni kenshin kyoto inferno tv#
10:24 Crunchyroll Also Streams Lord El-Melloi II's Case Files: Rail Zeppelin Grace note TV Anime's New Year's Special.Kyoto Inferno makes a lot of promises for The Legends End, but it is impressive enough on its own that it almost guarantees that everyone will stick around in for the finale. That, unfortunately, is Kenshin’s weakness, which he must overcome in the trilogy’s conclusion. Even the peaceful protagonist has to constantly resist the temptation of violence and destruction. Its takeaway is that war creates monsters, be it the sheer bloodthirstiness of Shishio, the single-minded vengeance of Shinomori, and cold cynicism of Hajime Saito (Yosuke Eguchi) who again serves as Kenshin’s foil. Kyoto Inferno does not shy away from the depicting the brutality of war. The colors are muted, and the costumes are covered with grime and blood. The Rurouni Kenshin movies have stood out from other anime adaptations with their gritty realism. The fight is a little too comedic, but the cliffhanger ending adds one last dose of drama. Once feared as Battosai the Killer, he has adopted a peaceful life since the arrival of the new age in Japanese history. The big duel is with the one of Shishio’s weaker henchmen, Cho the Sword Hunter (Ryosuke Miura), who fits in better with a bosozoku gang than a group of Meiji Era mercenaries. Kenshin Himura is a legendary swordsman in the wars accompanying the turbulent fall of Japans Shogunate in the 19th century.
Regrettably Shinomori does not get to duel with Kenshin either, making Kyoto Inferno‘s fights ultimately insignificant to the overall story. Both he and Shishio have endured great betrayal that set them on the path of villainy. Shinomori was cut from the first movie, but his story fits perfectly with Kyoto Inferno’s themes. However, she is in for a wake-up call, as the man she loves, Aoshi Shinomori (Yusuke Iseya), has turned into a heartless killer out for Kenshin’s blood. The young ninja’s optimism shines in the otherwise bleak movie. A new addition to his unusual team appears in the form of Misao Makimachi, played by the adorable Tao Tsuchiya. The quiet moments are endearing, highlighting the relationships Kenshin built in the first movie. Kyoto Inferno sets him on the path, littered with several eager to fight the infamous Battousai, to the ultimate showdown.ĭespite being a transition film, Kyoto Inferno contains enough backstory to not require knowledge of the manga/anime or the previous movie. Kenshin (Takeru Sato), however, is reluctant, but with an entire city at stake, he has no choice. The former assassin is plotting to take down the government that betrayed him-a government that must rely on another one of its former weapons, the man once known as the Battousai. The second live-action adaptation of Rurouni Kenshin covers the infamous Kyoto Arc, bringing to life Himura Kenshin’s most formidable opponent, Makoto Shishio (an unrecognizable Tatsuya Fujiwara). The red-haired wanderer is back, and so are the demons of the past.
