I prefer the manga to the anime.


But Chou is my favorite character from it.

Yeah, in the Reflections OVA he was asked to attend to one war and he went like 'Ok, I'll go, but just to help the wounded ones.'. That's how he got that disease... o.O This was just so fricken OOC!!

But the OVAs are LOTS better than the TV show, in my opinion. I like the drawing better, and the general serious mood. The Anime had way too much lame puns in it... <.< But best of all is still the MANGA! WHOOO!

The Reflections OVA has scenes with Enishi! That's what I like most about it! Even though they changed the story so that just Kenshin, Kaoru and Enishi appear, none of the K-gumi, no Saitou, no Oniwa Banshuu, no 'Six Companions' (that's what Enishi's We-Hate-Battousai club used to be called)... .:sigh:.


My most favourite character from both Manga and OVA is... Dundundun... AKIRA! ... Does anyone even remember -him-? Kyosato Akira, Yukishiro Tomoe's fiancee... Even though he just appeared for four or five pages in the Manga, I liked him from the start! Poor guy, to die such a horrible way... ;.;

I really dispise the art in those OVAs, they totally took out everything cool Watsuki's style in my opinion...

I like the OVA art styles. It doesn't have to follow the complete art style of the manga creator to be great.

My fav character is Misao. Idk how to explain it, except she sorta reminds me of my first made up character (well..first to be drawn and have a whole complete background and all) Yuna Minamoto.

Hi there,

no Kenshin's NOT fat! In the Reflections OVA he even looks skinnier than ever because of that disease...

A pudgy Kenshin. :shock: That's just wrong on soooo many levels.

He would make a very good Santa Claus, though. :roll:

Hmmm... I really can't imagine Kenshin as Santa. o.O

HEY! How about a nice brainstorming: What was the weirdest costume/role you've ever imagined the Kenshin cast in?

In mine Kaoru was a vampire and Kenshin got sucked out... o.O
