Rurouni kenshin
Heard a lot about these movies, and they've been recommended a ton, so I decided to give them a shot. At first, I was a bit lost because I didn't bother with the synopsis. Turns out, in the current era, Hitokiri Battousai has ditched the assassin life and is now on a journey to help those around him.In Tokyo, there's a businessman hooked on opium made by a female doctor, Megumi, who wants to take over the world or something. There's this old samurai, "Saito Hajime," working for the police, hell-bent on stopping the businessman and uncovering the copycat killer who's claiming victims in the name of Battousai. So, he seeks out Kenshin, and this dude's past is basically tailing him everywhere, but Kenshin's not interested. He ends up meeting Kaoru, who lets him crash at her dojo.
The plot was solid – Kenshin battling his past, trying not to revert to his Hitokiri ways. I haven't read the manga, so I can't compare, but I think it holds up well. Asked for some good fight scenes, and they delivered big time. It was a blast.
Enjoyed the whole thing, loved Takeru's acting – missed seeing him around. It was cool to see him in a different light.

PS: Assista em ordem cronológica, eu acho que funciona melhor para não pegar spoiler, assim dá um desfecho mais épico para toda a saga.
