Description In Favor Of Books Rurouni Kenshin, Vol. 1 #1-3 (Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Swordsman Romantic Story - VIZBIG Edition #1)

Packed with action, romance and historical intrigue, Rurouni Kenshin is one of the most beloved and popular manga series worldwide. Set against the backdrop of the Meiji Restoration, it tells the saga of Himura Kenshin, once an assassin of ferocious power, now a humble rurouni, a wandering swordsman fighting to protect the honor of those in need.

 

A hundred and fifty years ago in Kyoto, amid the flames of revolution, there arose a warrior, an assassin of such ferocious power he was given the title Hitokiri: Manslayer. With his bloodstained blade, Hitokiri Battosai helped close the turbulent Bakumatsu period and end the reign of the shoguns, slashing open the way toward the progressive Meiji Era.  Then he vanished, and with the flow of years became legend.

In the 11th year of Meiji, in the middle of Tokyo, the tale begins. Himura Kenshin, a humble rurouni, or wandering swordsman, comes to the aid of Kamiya Kaoru, a young woman struggling to defend her father's school of swordsmanship against attacks by the infamous Hitokiri Battosai. But neither Kenshin nor Battosai are quite what they seem...

Epic timeless manga. I really loved it. I remember watching the anime in the morning and then reading 5th is manga online. I loved this series. I just wish that Kaoru played a bigger role besides being the love interest and those few battles she was in. She's a dojo master for Peter sake!! Don't let some man weaken you! Kick some butt! I still love her for her being feisty. :)

I LOVE Rurouni Kenshin!!! This is the series that got me into manga and anime. Not only are all of the main characters lovable and well developed, but the story is great (as well as hilarious and heart-wrenching). The artwork is also really wonderful and beautiful.RK is the kind of series that you can read over and over and over again and still enjoy. For me I've yet to find any other 'samurai' manga that can compare.

Big, Bold, and BeautifulI was introduced Nobuhiro Watsuki's work though watching its English-dubbed, anime adaptation. When I was 13, I found its first volume in a bookstore and was too creeped out by the violence depicted in only the first few pages. At the time I didn't understand that when Shonen Jump meant it was for older teens to read, they meant it.Now that a few years have passed, I've matured enough not to be bothered by the violence. I'd also practically forgotten most of the story and

So, it all started when my professor decided to show us the animated Samurai X movie on the final day of our Graphic Novel and Manga class. I was so drawn in by the historical plot, the intense sword-fighting, and the surprising amount of heartfelt romance. I asked my brother to track down the Japanese live action film for me-(which was jaw-droppingly incredible!)-and after that, there was no turning back. I had to get my hands on the source material for such an epic plot. So, here we are--me

Rurouni Kenshin is a timeless manga, or japanese comic, which started up my love for reading in my teenage years. It is about a samurai without a master, Himura Kenshin, and his journey to find a place called home, while protecting those he cares about with a reverse blade sword, specifically made to injure, but not kill, his enemies. He finds a home and a friend with Kamiya Karou, head of a local dojo in the city he had just entered. Protecting her from bandits who wanted to steal her dojo and

A wonderful start to a series!!! Swords-swordsmen, action-packed, funny, touching moments, historical information about japan's edo and meiji periods-shinsengumi and beautiful art with colour pages!!!!
