But that’s not the only good news related to Rurouni Kenshin because, soon, fans can marathon the first three films on Netflix. “Rurouni Kenshin: Origins”, Rurouni Kenshin: Kyoto Inferno”, and “Rurouni Kenshin: The Legend Ends” are dropping on June 18, together with “Rurouni Kenshin: The Final”. 

I’m excited for this because Marc and I would love to marathon the first three films before watching “Rurouni Kenshin: The Final” and “Rurouni Kenshin: The Beginning”. We are big fans of the anime series, so we were really happy when the three live-action movies came out in theaters. We thought the third film was the last; then we heard the news last year that director Keishi Ōtomo was shooting both the sequel and prequel of the last three films. Imagine our excitement because we watched both OVA movies and seeing them in live-action  would be awesome. 

“Rurouni Kenshin: The Final” is the fourth installment in the Rurouni Kenshin film series and focuses on Himura Kenshin who is brought on a fight involving revenge by Yukishiro Enishi. The fifth installment and prequel to the film series entitled “Rurouni Kenshin: The Beginning” tells the story on how Kenshin got his cross-shaped scar. It also focuses on his past as the assassin Hitokiri Battōsai during the final years of the Bakumatsu and will explore his relationship with a woman named Yukishiro Tomoe.
