Samurai X OVA Reflections
« on: April 16, 2007, 10:22:28 PM »
Rurouni Kenshin: Seis?hen, known in Japan as Seis?hen (???, Time?) and Samurai X: Reflection in the English language releases is the second OVA series of the anime show Rurouni Kenshin. It is set both during and after the TV series.

However, as time went by, Kenshin becomes tortured anew by the guilt of leading a happy life after such a destructive past. He makes the decision to wander again, and Kaoru strongly supports him, promising to welcome him home with a smile and their child. For fifteen years, he wanders, returning every once in a while.

EDITED OUT SPOILERS. SEE SPOILER THREAD IN SAME SECTION.

Animax always picks the 2nd best of the lot..... well be grateful that you are at least getting to watch this.... though I don't think there are too many RK fans who will be pleased by what they see......

heh... damn!! i really wished they'd show trust and betrayal before this one.. but like u said, something's better than nothing.. the ending of reflections has been a big topic of arguements among kenshin fans..

Carry on the discussion in the spoiler area... here it becomes spoilerific.

What did you think of Enishi in the Reflections OVA? I mean his looks.

he may wear glasses, but that doesn't make him look geeky.. i think it makes him look really cool, kinda like ban of GB..

o sry.. i was referring to kyo...
here.. i'll send u a link to my wall of enishi.. that just might change ur mind...
he does have an aura about him,... just like ban, but more twisted evil than ban ever could be IMO..


i must admit, he looks a LOT better in the manga..

the ova to me isnt as great..i prefer the kenshin in the series better... and also the dubbed characters are different...the the storyline isnt the bad...wanders off and comes back dying in kaoru's arms...

I must admit, I personally liked Reflections' ending as well, though I also feel it didn't do nearly enough justice to the Enishi arc from the manga.
The animation was far better than the original anime, though I'd have preferred it if they'd used the original VAs as well.
