Rurouni Kenshin Chapter 255 Discussion

The manga ended well, the only negative for me is that Kenshin should have been more of a realistic samurai instead of making such an oath, but since it's an old-school shounen, I can understand it.

8/10

Damn, I wish the last chapter was a bit longer. Good to know that Kenshin has a family (the kid does indeed look a bit like him) and he also retains that trademark scar. And it's interesting he gave away his sword to really move on in his life.



7/10 overall. Not sure who my favorite characters are but it was entertaining in terms of storytelling.

I had my share of complaints by the end of this series, but at the end of the day I'm sad to see Kenshin, Kaoru, and everyone else go. The epilogue was very satisfying, it's good to see Kenshin having a peaceful life for a change.

i love that he retains that cross scar on his face. it's the way it is, much more realistic than vanishing it

I also hope for an adaptation worthy the name Rurouni Kenshin, with no fillers, as there's no need for them, and with the Jinchuu arc. I've always wanted it, and with the release of Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood I just kept thinking "If they reanimated FMA, why not do it with RK?". Let's hope they do it someday. THIS. Why can't there be a Jinchuu arc animation. The recent Kyoto arc OVA is hardly needed at all.



I am still hoping for the Jinchuu arc animation. Why can't someone take it up and do it? SO many fans are waiting for it. And please more scenes with Kaoru too!

Finished the anime a long time ago...now I finally finish this master piece.

Compare it to the anime, it differs very much and it makes me hate the anime so much even tho I kind of like it.

It great ending for a great work.

Overall, 10/10

It feels really great to finally read the last page of RK



One of the best manga ever written

Great manga, one of the best I read.



I would have liked if Kenshin and rest also meet Sanosuke's father and siblings, as well as Sanosuke ending up with Megumi, though.



I hope whole manga gets proper adaptation one day - great story is already written, now all that is needed is animation with current standards.



10/10

Definitely one of the best endings to any anime/manga. It wraps everything up really nicely, and every main character got their stories fully told.



Plus, who doesn't love the last page of this oh so amazing shounen?

And here i am at the final chapter.

Solid shounen, 8/10

Masterpiece. And the end is just as it should be.

What I liked most is that Sanosuke left Japan and is wandering around the world. All as it should be. It's such a great feeling.

Favourite storyline?No.

Favourite characters ?No.

Favourite art ?No.



Why i gave a 9 out of 10 then?Even if the Manga will not be in my favourites or the ones i will spend many hours talk about, it is a perfect example of how all manga must be!Solid story,strong characters and great ending!We learn everything about the characters and i didn't have questions when i finish reading.I have to say that this one of the few Manga that they manage to succeed it.This Manga will always have my respect!



Now i can understand why i never hear any complaint for Rurooni Kenshin even if people maybe don't favour it!



Again one big respect for one of the few fully completed stories!
