Kenshin Himura is a legendary swordsman in the wars accompanying the turbulent fall of Japan’s Shogunate in the 19th century. Once feared as ‘Battosai the Killer’, he has adopted a peaceful life since the arrival of the ‘new age’ in Japanese history. But Makoto Shishio, the ‘Shadow Killer’ who succeeded to Kenshin’s position in the service of the new government, has since then been active in the Kyoto underworld. Because he knew too much of the dark side of the new government, he was stabbed and his body set on fire. He survived, however and, wrapped in bandages, has raised an army of former samurai with the aim of overthrowing the new regime. Agreeing to a request by Toshimichi Okubo, the Home Minister, Kenshin leaves his friends in Tokyo and sets out for Kyoto. He and Shishio are a match in skill and in wits, but their aims are opposite. Kenshin seeks to preserve the nation without breaking his vow that he will kill no more.

A truely badass movie. It is one of the films when it is a better movie than the prequal. Plenty of action, follows the original story closely, disturbing and gutt renching in places. Well worth the long wait!!!!!

Gets even better though out after the first sequel movie, a must watch and burn this movie into your eyes that you will never forget the awesomeness of this master piece!!!

Great movie. Best live action ever. I love the sound track by One OK Rock band.
