[QUOTE="Chun-tzu, post: 650215, member: 1441"] Kenshin is one of my favorite anime series of all, and definitely the best action anime (except possibly for Ninja Scroll) I've ever seen. Sure, Dragonball Z has some good fight scenes, but they're not as smartly choreographed as the best of Rurouni Kenshin. My favorite anime episode EVER is the fight between Kenshin and Cho the Sword Hunter. It was just so fantastic. Kenshin's sword has been shattered, leaving him at a fraction of his full strength. But of course, he doesn't hesitate to charge to the defense of the swordsmith's infant son.

When the swordsmith throws Kenshin a sword, Kenshin still hesitates to draw his weapon, because he knows that if he does, Cho will be killed and Kenshin's oath to never kill again will be lost, along with his redemption.
