My first impression of Rurouni Kenshin after watching the first two episodes is that it’s actually pretty good. I grew up watching the original, so of course I had to check this one out. The animation looks cleaner, and the fights are definitely smoother, but man, the original just had a certain vibe to it. Especially the music and old-school animation. That’s hard to beat. I like what they’re doing with Kenshin so far, and it’s cool seeing these characters again with a fresh look. I’m not saying it’s better than the original, but I’m enjoying it. Still too early to judge, but so far We’ll see how it goes.
