New Trailer For The Live-Action RUROUNI KENSHIN Sequels (w/ Subs)

Cool. Never seen the series or the original but it looks decent.

@gibman

Get the torrent, you can find it on any site.

@LaputaHeir

What about the old school stuff? Zatoichi? Yojimbo?

@laputhier I know everyone is entitled to have an opinion but yours is wrong. The first movie was great clearly because they got the green light to film two back to back and that is an achievement in any country. If your not a fan of the genre they why are you commenting?? It adapts the themes of the manga and series nicely... But you would only know that if you were familiar with both.

Loved the animated series and OVA's and the the first live action movie was spectacular as well. I'm definitely excited for this one.

Now this looks sweet, great find!

@Supercat
That was one of the best swordplay fight scenes I've seen in a while. Loved the ninja vs. samurai feel of it. Son was wicked as shit w/ that tanto.

to all those (foolishly, IMO) still pining for a decent live-action DBZ look no further than these fine folks for how to do it right.

All the major players are back except for Tanaka (the original Yahiko) and the choreography looks just as sharp if not better!!

I really wish more CBM fans/users would see the first flic. It's what "sticking to source material" should look like. Even the creator of the original Manga, Nobuhiro was quoted in a Shonen Jump article with this stamp of approval:

"It was right on! Takeru Satoh played Kenshin’s dual personality well. He truly was Kenshin. Yosuke Eguchi who played Saitō Hajime, Koji Kikkawa who played Udō Jin-e, and Munetaka Aoki who played Sagara Sanosuke really took on their characters’ expressions and movements in the action sequences. It drew me in, especially the scene with Saitō’s Gatotsu pose. It sent chills down my spine! I thought Emi Takei playing Kamiya Kaoru was really cute and Yu Aoi playing Takani Megumi was also fantastic", and that the film itself has "parts I felt I didn’t explain well enough in the manga were improved. There were actually lines in the movie that made me think “I want to use that line in the manga!"

I don't think you could get a better cosign if you tried.

Cannot wait for this to drop

this will be better than a vast majority of the garbarge slated for this summer.
I'd bet my beard on it.

I still don't understand why the first one was never released in U.S. theaters?

These movies are 1000 times better than those crappy CBMs from Fox!

:-P

Loved the anime series! Loved the first one! Looking forward to this one! :-)

@sinsear

WB is the distributor on this. They wouldn't cut their own legs out from underneath them. Makes no sense to undercut, then double dip on a 3rd party production deal

If they were gonna "white wash", they would have done it already.
