I have seen the first OVA/OAV (parts 1-4) I have seen the episodes of the TV series (1-95) I have seen the first part of the second OVA/OAV (part 1 of 2) [cannot wait for the second part]
Is there any reason for me to read the manga? Mind you, I do not know Japanese and would probably have to end up reading translations.
Are there any major elements in the manga, for those of you who are familiar with it, that I just should not miss?
Also, for those of you in the know, will the manga continue with new storylines after the completion of the 2nd OVA/OAV? -- You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You are the same decaying organic matter as everything else. - Tyler Durden (Fight Club) |

| some spoilers here - - - -
the anime left out the whole Enishi saga which is in the manga the first OAV is actually a part of the Enishi saga In the manga Kenshin tells everyone the story about how he got his scars
the 2nd part of the 2nd OAV might show the whole Enishi thing (with some changes probably) since the first OAV ending with Enishi kidnapping Karou -- Fitter, happier, and more productive! |
