And your answer would be incomplete anyway, he's in both of the Rurouni Kenshin OVAs.

Okay, I got up to volume 8 of the manga, then I decided to buy the first complete season for Rurouni Kenshin off of Amazon. I was expecting it to be really awesome, because I was in love with the manga, and so was my brother as well. So as we put in the discs and watched them, Well I found my white walls more interesting, I don't know why but the voice acting for me was really bad, and they just didn't seemed thrilled or anything. and the music wasn't fitting the emotion, I think I remember someone was about to be killed and then they play this happy acoustic music. I just didn't get it and lost interest in Rurouni Kenshin after that. Maybe that's just me, I don't know.

But the story-line is really good, I don't really like romantic crap, but this was pretty good.

HK pirated of course ~_~;

In which case, you're farther ahead just pirating it yourself and saving the money and trouble of paying some idiot to do it for you.

Yeah, I paid about 45$ for Season 1, Season 2 is ridiculously about 80$ and the same for Season 3, If I remember correctly. Anyone know why those were so much more expensive anyways?

Now were you watching the English Dub or the original Japanese with sub-titles???

Now with the Anime series, its the 2nd Season where 'Rurouni Kenshin' earns its reputation as a fantastic series. So it sounds like you gave up too early...

I liked the anime a lot and I think that the seiyuu are good enough (except for Kenshin though). Although after the Shimabara arc, I lost interest in the anime. I did watch the whole series - watched it 7 times and counting - but after the first time around, the feng sui arc just makes me sleep.
