Confessions & Proposals
Kenshin: Would you like to watch the new era with me?
Kaoru: I want to stay with you, Kenshin.
May 14, Meiji 11th year
I really love this art
I admire Kaoru in this scene, I think this is an underated KenKao scene. Kaoru chose to stay by Kenshin side while their friend were taking a break.
And her determination to hear the rest of the story was amazing. She didn't even flinch when hearing the darkest past and love story from her crush the man she loved.
What a strong woman.
I CAN’T BELIEVE IT. IT HAS FINALLY COME. THE MOMENT I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SINCE I FIRST FINISHED THE MANGA SERIES OF RUROUNI KENSHIN 20 YEARS AGO. I CANNOT BELIEVE I WILL GET TO POST THIS ——— WE FINALLY HAVE JINCHUU!!!!!! EARTHLY JUSTICE IS FINALLY GOING TO BE SERVED!!!! ALL CAPS!!!! AAAAhhhhhaaaaahhhhhhh.m
Apparently it didn’t get served. Bwiset. The most important part of the whole story - the whole point really- and they changed it. Great.
No amazing heart wrenching scenes for Kaoru and Kenshin - no “What is Himura Kenshin??? Kaoru-dono….. Kaoru.”
[CONTAIN SPOILERS]
Oro?
He's my childhood manga hero and I grew up reading the manga. Watching my favourite Takeru reliving Kenshin is like the strawberry and cream on top of a really delicious vanilla cake!
The Final's storyline was a bit different from the manga. They didn't insert the part where Enishi faked Kaoru's death that it totally threw Kenshin to the bottom of his life. Her (faked) death hurts him so much that he couldn't even swing his sakabato anymore. Then again, for Kaoru's sake, he's up and faces his fate again.
But it doesn't mean I didn't like the movie. I mean, they put Himura Kenshin and Seta Sojiro fighting together side-by-side, so who am I to complain?! I really love the part Kenshin and Kaoru left Tomoe's grave while holding hands, exactly the way it was in the manga. The cinematography, fighting scenes, all those have been really awesome since the first instalment.
I hope there's an epilogue in the upcoming The Beginning, the one where Kenshin and Kaoru gotten married, have a son, and Kenshin cut his hair short. Then he hands down his sakabato to Yahiko. I personally think that part is so iconic and significant, showing the new era has really, really begun.
My heart rate reached 3000
Just watched Rurouni Kenshin: The Final last night
I have A LOT OF FEELINGS
In the spirit of my last 2 RK movie HOT TAKES here are some brand-new, certified fresh HOT TAKES on an actual NEW movie!
In no particular order, btw
SPOILERS ABOUND
SATOU TAKERU!
He's the perfect Kenshin, okay? They could not have cast him better
He does SO MUCH ACTING with just facial expressions and changes in tone and body language
Also, he has a beautiful heart-shaped mouth. YOU SHOULD ALL APPRECIATE THAT
But like he's just... *chef's kiss* perfection, okay?
But holy fuck, MACKENYU ARATA, everyone!
He is the son of martial artist SONNY CHIBA, which explains a lot about how this bitch moves
You wanted a perfectly cast, psychotic, yet somewhat sympathetic Enishi?
MACKENYU ARATA WILL GIVE THAT TO YOU
He also just... fucking firebombs Tokyo, so like... idk man
If the gummint wanted to kill this bitch at the end because of those acts of TERRORISM
I appreciate that Enishi and his goons actually spoke Chinese here and there
Enishi doesn't even draw his sword til the end, okay?
HE FUCKS DUDES UP ON THE TRAIN WITH A FUCKING CHILD'S TOY
HE STABS A DUDE WITH A CHILD'S TOY
Misao is such a fucking BAMF in this movie
Look, LOOK, I'm pretty cool on Misao in the anime/manga, but the movies clearly knew they needed to do better by her
And they did!
I love this Misao. ONLY THIS MISAO. This Misao is best Misao
I always forget about Aoshi
And so did this movie LOL
RIP Aoshi but Misao will take over from here
In Japan, a bag of weed is a more punishable offense than fucking CHILD P*RNOGRAPHY, which is why Aoshi was mostly excised from the movie
That's all I can say about that without lapsing into blind rage, so moving on
Kenshin and Kaoru, babes, doing the most we're gonna get
Look, LOOK, I know that Japan is all about SUBTLETY and NUANCE
And so this HAND HOLDING might as well be a mothafuckin SEX SCENE
But DAMMIT, DAMMIT, IT'S BEEN 4 MOVIES, OKAY?
Would it KILL THEM to do the CONFESSION SCENE?
"I want to stay with you, Kenshin."
LET HER SAY IT!
LET HER SAY IT!
MY UNSUBTLE AMERICAN ASS NEEDS IT SPELLED OUT FOR ME, OKAY?
Okay, but this was a good movie for Takei Emi
She got shafted in the 3rd movie
But she got to show some range and understanding and empathy and all kinds of Kaoru-y goodness in this one
Also they gave her a MUCH BETTER WIG than she got in the 1st movie
APPARENTLY I'M AT MY IMAGE LIMIT
I'M GOING TO CONTINUE THIS IN A PART 2
My original RK first movie hot take

thank you, sorry, and... good bye.
TEAM "RK The Final"
I really like the scene where Enishi read Tomoe's diary and cry like a child. It expresses his essential childish and pureness.
I think Mackenyu's acting was perfect. It was a wonderful discovery equivalent to Kenshin played by Takeru Satoh.
cutest moment.
Emi wasn't informed that she could reach out by Kenshin in the last scene.
