I also would like to preface by saying that my thoughts about the author, nobuhiro watsuki, is rather different and not exactly in a kind way either, practically the opposite in fact. To be straightforward with anyone reading this, I hold his legendary creation called rurouni kenshin to be at the highest regard, yet nobuhiro watsuki himself on a personal level, I have a low opinion due to a certain controversy hovering above that dude. It's one of those things where a fan largely seperates the art from the artist. Feel free to click on this link to watch a video that explains his nasty fall as an individual. Very shocking to say the least. I essentially have the same views as the youtuber who explained it.

For people that are so disgusted with nobuhiro watsuki from what he did outside his work and don't want to read rurouni kenshin because of it, I don't blame you and I respect your decision at refusing to dive in the famous media franchise he created. To those still willing to give a try if you have not done so yet, I hope you enjoy learning some fun information regarding meiji era japan and maybe even gain a little bit of wisdom from the philosophy and politics it offers, and kenshin himura's character development throughout the beautiful dramatic story about redemption.
