A Wish Unrequited
March 1st, 2009 by Dr. Anime
Kenshin must decide wheather he wants to go back to Kyoto or not, to go back to becoming a manslayer. Lord Okubo is riding in his carriage, thinking to himself that he hoped Kenshin would chose to go to Kyoto. However, Soujiro assassinates him. Soujiro tells Kenshin that it’s a warning to stay out of Shisho’s way. At the end Kenshin announces that he will be going to Kyoto. Kaoru is worried that this means he will go back to being the Battosai.
one of the most beautiful and touching scenes I’ve ever seen in Rurouni Kenshin (at the end). anybody know the name of this theme song? with the string orchestra and such
Moments like this make this one of my favorite animes of all time.
Oh my gosh, that was a really lovely moment. Usually I’m not that taken by a scene or anime at all. But that was really nice/sad and the music really set the mood. I feel so bad for kenshin.
