With an estimated 72 million copies in circulation, "Rurouni Kenshin" was one of the top-selling manga titles of its time, becoming so successful that it actually helped keep its then-struggling home magazine alive. Also known as "Samurai X" in other countries, "Rurouni Kenshin" follows the adventures of Kenshin Himura, a former revolutionary assassin with a cross-shaped scar on his cheek who, for initially mysterious reasons, turned his back on killing and re-emerged as a wanderer with a reverse-edge sword (or sakabatou). Since its 1994 debut in the pages of Japan's Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine, "Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Swordsman Romantic Story" has grown from a promising manga to a pop culture phenomenon. What does it take for a cold-blooded assassin, the very best in his line of work, to turn his back on killing and become a pacifist? Can true peace be obtained by force, and can violence truly be curbed with more violence? Perhaps most importantly, how can a retired swordsman hope to survive against a seemingly never-ending stream of vengeful villains out for his blood, when all he has is a sword with a reverse edge?
