I remembered this as my first comic (manga) which I brought... It make me feel interesting.. :P His sword's techniques could be amazing with so many different moves, and unlike most ninja and samurai used normal techniques, the moves were adaptable and you will see his fighting with the strong samurai and ninja..He always think something while he is fighting...so, he try to use different of techniques than the techniques that he learned from his master..I think that he is genius..:P Doryuusen and Ryuutsuisen might have been commonly used, but you will see his final technique (Dragon) ..haha after he learned it with his master! :D

His left face has a scar 'X'..I don't know about why his scar never to be vanished..Someone said his scar got a curse and revenge shown from his important person in his life.. What is happened to his past life? He wants to tell his enemies and friends about the understanding of human life because he learned many things during he went through his suffering and sadness in his hell of jounery...

The story of Rurouni Kenshin is jam-packed with action and adventure, although it also contains humor, romance and an underlying message about the value of human life! :D
