This website is all about Japanese cartoons, better known as anime. I have chosen to do this website on Kenshin Himura, better known as Samurai X. Kenshin Himura is one of my all time favorite shows and movies. My other favorite is Inuyasha who is a half demon. He turns into his human form on the night of the full moon. Kenshin is known as the Hitokiri Battousai because shortly after he served in the war, he was hired as an assassin. The rest of this website will describe some events that you may not have known about in Kenshin's life. He is now a wandering samurai with no master or sensai. He is now called Rurouni Kenshin, meaning "wandering swordsman".
