Q reads Rurouni Kenshi

[Papasmurf]

Outside of the backstory I haven't enjoyed this arc too much yet.

You can skip straight to Kenshin vs Enishi and not miss very much tbh.

I've pretty well been scanning the pages rn just to see what happens. I'm barely even reading it.

Saito just showed up. Hopefully his explanation is good lol.

[SSJ2]

I can't tell if I missed the explanation or not. Feel free to spoil it Kenshi

 

[Papasmurf]

He just calls himself the immortal of that swordsman group he used to be in and said I can survive anything cuz experiece

 

[SSJ2]

Oh LOL that was it? I figured he just didn't want to reveal the details and was fucking around lol.

 

[SSJ2]

lol kenshi

 

[SSJ2]

What does Saito mean here?

 

[SSJ2]

lol

 

[SSJ2]

So while Sano is away from the group, he happens to fight some random ass guy that happened to be his long lost dad... Get the fuck out with this faggot shit. This manga is above this sort of crap.

 

[SSJ2]

So we have Saito, Sano and Aoshi all fighting one of these Shanghai bodyguards, yet somehow Yahiko gets tasked with fighting the same level fighter?

 

[SSJ2]

Lmao the top panel quote.

I just finished the manga. The final fight/arc was incredibly disappointing, but it could have been worse I suppose. I'm thinking 7-8/10 for the whole manga. Quality.

 

[Papasmurf]

Yeah other than being a nice wrap-up the final arc was pretty lame. "Giant nerves" was the dumbest shit ever considering he didn't whip that out when Kenshin was whooping his ass last time lol.

 

[SSJ2]

Enishi didn't have one decent power up.

Yeah the wrap up was good. I still have to read 255.5 and the epilogue.

 

[SSJ2]

Is there anything else within this series to read?

 

[Papasmurf]

There's an OVA version of Kenshin's backstory with a more mature tone and a non-canon OVA where he dies, that's about it. Watsuki did some cashgrab sequel/spin off series before he got arrested but most were absolute shit.

 

[SSJ2]

I may leave it be then. I don't want anything to sour the taste left by the manga.

 

[Papasmurf]

I wonder if he's still drawing shitty spin off chapters in jail.
