Rurouni Kenshin 2023 – 18
「左之助と錦絵」 (Sanosuke to Nishiki-e)
“Sanosuke & Nishiki Paintings”
Most of the events depicted in the series were instigated be people scarred in one way or another by the Boshin War.

「葬送のフリーレン」 (Sōsō no Furīren)
“Frieren the Slayer”
The versatility Frieren has shown in the last couple of episodes has impressed me.
「決着」 (Ketchaku)
“Settling the Score”
There are so many things that make Kenshin exceptional, but the hard truth is that the most exceptional thing is the number of people he’s killed.
Sousou no Frieren is an interesting and somewhat difficult series for me to nail down.
「その男・雷十太」 (Sono Otoko Raijuuta)
“That Man – Raijuta”
This was the first episode where I’d say the ’23 version flat-out thrashed the ’96.
「弥彦の戦い」 (Yahiko no Tatakai)
“Yahiko’s Battle”
He may decline to teach Yahiko (or anyone else) Hiten Mitsurugi-ryuu, but Kenshin is quite serious about teaching him how to be an honorable man.
「旅立ち」 (Tabidachi)
“Departure”
When the reckoning up of 2023 in anime comes around, this series is going to demand serious consideration.
「死闘の果て」 (Shitou no Hate)
“Battle’s End”
Megumi frankly gets a better deal than she deserves here, but that just puts the onus on her to do the right thing with it.
「トゥー・フィー」 (To~uu fī)
“Tou Fui”
One of the themes of this series, I think, is “the more things change, the more they stay the same”.
