	Himura Kenshin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The main character of the Rurouni Kenshin series: Kenshin was a former Imperialist assassin that went by the name "Hitokiri Battōsai" (spelled with a macron in the Viz manga, and spelled as "Hitokiri Battousai" in the English anime releases).
		Meanwhile, Kenshin runs off, desperate to find her, and is ambushed by several Yaminobu ninjas, each of whom manages to wound him severely, being blinded and deafened by an explosion set off by a dying ninja and numbed by the cold with only his sense of smell remaining.
		Kenshin eventually becomes ravaged by an unknown disease, thought by some fans to be leprosy, although the writers have admitted there is no medical explanation for the ending.

	Absolute Anime / Rurouni Kenshin / Kenshin Himura
		Kenshin is a gentle, polite man who lives at the Kamiya Dojo with Kaoru and Yahiko.
		Kenshin has a peculiar style of speech in which he uses "gozaru," an obsolete form of the verb "to be." He also uses the "samurai" pronoun "sessha," which is supposed to be polite.
		Kenshin Himura was born a peasant under the name Shinta, with no family name.

		Kenshin Himura is a hitokiri turned into a good samurai...He has vowed never to kill anybody again and as he journeys through his life, he makes many friends who are always by his side when he needs them......
		Kenshin in turn told her that as a hitokiri, he'd nearly gone mad from all the killing, till she came into his life, started questioning what he was doing and then gave him the sheath for his madness.
		Kenshin awakened just as the others came to the room to tell him that they had found out that Kaoru was alive (I don't know how they found this out), but Kenshin told them he already knew and was ready to rescue her.

	Nobuhiro Watsuki's Rurouni Kenshin - Associated Content
		Kenshin himself is loosely based on a historical persona, and the series mingles a bit of Japanese history with Watsuki's original adventures.
		Himura Kenshin is an ex-samurai, and a "rorouni"; a wanderer, a vagabond.
		Kenshin steps in to help Kaoru defend her family dojo, and in what becomes the template for the manga, both new and old enemies emerge to challenge Kenshin.

	Kenshin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Basically, Kenshin falls in love with Tomoe, and later on in a fight she jumps in the way to protect him from being stabbed, and is consequently stabbed herself by both Kenshin's sword and his opponent's.
		Kenshin decided to finish off the war as an assassin, but as soon as the war ended he turned his katana and wakizashi in for a sakabatou and vowed never to kill again.
		This is how Kenshin's laundry fetish is. After washing vats of blood from his body night after night as a hitokiri, I think he finds it comforting and relaxing to wash grass stains from Kaoru's kimonos all day long.

		Himura Kenshin is actually the legendary Hitokiri Battousai, who fought and killed many in the great war.
		Kenshin had become a Rurouni, a wonderer with no real home and never staying at one place for too long.
		Kenshin as Rurouni is very sweet and caring, with his wide purple eyes, he looks almost innocent.

		The woman, Kaoru, invites Kenshin to stay at her father's kendo dojo, and he comes to her aid when she is attacked by a disgraced student.
		The man in question, Himura Kenshin, is not in fact the killer she's looking for -- but he was a killer, once, and he's only too happy to explain (in his curiously sheepish manner) that his sword, with the blade on the wrong side, isn't designed to kill.
		Kenshin moves in and promptly makes himself welcome with Kaoru and her family - willing to cook, clean, and entertain the neighboring children rather than rest on his samurai laurels.

		Kenshin as people know him is an extremely caring individual, a mild-mannered (with a dash of formal) man who doesn't care to do anything but help other, less fortunate people enjoy life.
		While Kenshin's swordsmanship is excellent, the Battousai's skill is demonlike, since he doesn't uphold Kenshin's vow of preserving life.
		However, Kenshin can typically keep the Battousai's personality in check, unless someone is able to upset Kenshin (usually by harming someone he cares for).

		I'm pretty proud of my Kenshin costume, even though the majority of it was premade for me. I watched Kenshin while I was in Japan, and really fell in love with the series during my trip to Japan.
		I bought a katana for a friend in Kyoto, and with the katana I decided that I'd cosplay Kenshin, since his orgins were in Kyoto.
		I made two layers, his lighter under layer which is white, and made from linen and the heavy coarse fabric that is a suit material for the outer layer.
