I loved this volume.
Kenshin learns the Hiten Mitsurugi move from his master and we get to see a little glimps into their history. I liked learning about Kenshin's past and some of his master's stories. I thought their chemistry was very strong and it came across on paper.
Kaoru, Yahiko and Misao remain in Kyoto and are in charge of preventing the fires. Shishio, we find out, is going to burn Kyoto down, but as a distraction to he can destroy Tokyo. So Kenshin, Sanosuke, and Hajime all travel to w...more

This story literally has everything I love in a manga. A fantastic main character with a wonderful backstory, an awesome leading lady who isn't just there for boob-service and actually has a great, well-rounded character, wonderful and memorable supporting characters whether they be friends or foes, stories that get rounded-out and resolved and don't just focus on getting the BRAND NEW FIGHTING TECHNIQUE!!1, a storyline that doesn't stray into sentimental or cliche and yet still tugs at your hea...more
A combination of the end of the "training montage" and the beginning of the villain's first major offensive. Given the historical and cultural implications of the plot, an interesting and intriguing story.
While it's not the true story of Meiji Japan, [author:Nobuhiro Watsuki[ clearly understands the period well.

Sayang banget!
Aku nggak baca komiknya dari nomor pertama!
Aku tahu cerita ini dari televisi, daaan... Lucu banget liat si Battousai jadi pengembara biasa begitu.

I love this volume purely for the fact that there is a flashback of Kenshin before he was Kenshin. He is absolutely adorable, so small, so determined to do the right thing.
Probably one of the best installments so far in the series.

One of my favorite manga series.
^_^
Not only was this an action packed series, but it was also full of great historical information. I learned so much about Japan's history by reading this series. Watsuki managed to throw in a nice amount of romance as well. All in all, it was a great fun read that kept me wanting more.
Oh wow, I think this one deserves six stars if I've been giving the others all five. I really liked the way the threads started coming together here, and the reunion of Sanosuke and Kenshin.
Uno de mis tomos favoritos de una de mis sagas favoritas de uno de mis mangas favoritos. Cuando recuerde bien qué capítulos contiene, seguro rerreseñe :P
Very violent which is good.
Sano quite simply IS the man.
