Rurouni Kenshin (1996)

Rurouni Kenshin (1996 TV series) Choose the 1996 version for long-running adventure built around a former assassin’s promise to stop killing. The reverse-blade sword gives you a practical sign of the promise: each fight asks what Kenshin can do without falling back on his old method. You get a stylized Meiji-era drama with room for smaller character stories.
