Don’t speak! What do you know about my sister, you scoundrel?!!
I really don’t need a rich family’s murder, huh?
>>1
Without that, the revenge gains legitimacy.
>>1
Therefore, it was omitted in the live-action adaptation.
Without it, Kenshin will only be able to die from a logical punch.
>>3
So, this is where the wrongdoing stops, but the revenge does not; this is the compromise in live-action.
>>3
Wasn’t the main topic how to receive and respond to a logical punch?
>>3
Even so, if I were a boy, I think I would have been rooting for Kenshin, saying, “Don’t act so smug and throw around your so-called logic, you newcomer!”
>>62
I’ve seen all of Kenshin’s battles so far.
If this guy lived straight and succeeded, then came to take revenge on Kenshin, there would be no righteousness on Kenshin’s side, so I made him an ungrateful scumbag lunatic for balance adjustment.
If someone said to Kenshin, “Your sister died because of you, so you should die too!” would he commit suicide?
>>7
I will do it, absolutely.
Because Kaoru was caught up in it, Kenshin was devastated and also stood up to confront it.
Whenever I’m followed under the pretense that I’ll die after achieving revenge, I think it’s because I would properly investigate and clarify who the real enemy is with that spirit of avenging my sister. Isn’t that why I chose this as a theme to address?
Given the original draft’s ramshackle state, this is fine as it ensures Kenshin doesn’t become too much of a loser.
Living with a wealthy family, even the retribution comes with a wealthy family.
Do you want to see Enishi sulking next to a wealthy family urging Kenshin to turn himself in before the start?
>>12
Kenshin can’t turn himself in because he’s an executioner for the government, which he shouldn’t reveal.
>>13
Have you been escaping the guilt of killing Tomoe-san with that excuse? You should be ashamed to say such things in front of En-kun!
>>19
My adoptive father suddenly snapped.
>>20
I wonder if it’s all of a sudden…
You’re the worst, Getbackers.
I think it’s extremely rare to have a character that has been left aside for nearly 30 years, excluding the unfinished aspects, and then successfully adapted into live action.
It’s sad that, regarding the lines in the thread image, it’s probably Kenshin who understands Tomoe better.
>>16
My sister died, and at the time, I looked like a kid who hadn’t even reached adulthood.
There are parts that I can sympathize with, but that doesn’t excuse their actions, which are trash!
They said that if they put decent people on the revenge side, they won’t be able to create a story!
>>21
Does the author mean to say that they want to fail as a subject?
Well, it’s a case of the concept collapsing, isn’t it? The Human Execution Arc.
>>22
In the first place, there was talk of being approached to join the Meiji government.
Although he is involved in assassination, the achievements are greater, and the sense of atonement is ultimately a problem for Kenshin himself.
>>36
No one in the Bakumatsu group other than Kenshin thinks that assassination itself is a bad thing.
>>40
In short, it’s a civil war, so it’s a matter of mutual responsibility.
If someone said to Kenshin, “I really can’t forgive you to the point that I want to kill you,” while he is living seriously and normally, he would undoubtedly commit sepukku.
Whether the image deserves to be the avenger of justice or not, the fact is that there is no grudge against Kaoru, the sister, in relation to Kenshin.
A thread picture of a guy misunderstanding that he should take revenge even at the cost of trampling on others’ lives.
Trash that only has a good face.
You’re going to cool your head by accompanying Truth in her conquest of the nation in hell, right?!
Even if revenge is the motive, if what they’re doing is terrorism, it gives the protagonist a valid reason to stop it, and if it’s personal revenge, I’ll accept that. The live-action adaptation has done a pretty good job clarifying this.
>>28
I can properly understand why En would resent the Meiji government.
Someone who has ruined someone else’s family and life is now being a kept man for a woman who’s ten years older, and if they act like it’s a joke, it’s understandable to be angry…
Regardless of the fact that what they are doing is terrorism, since they were an assassin from the Restoration side, it makes sense for them to resent not only Kenshin personally but also the Restoration government itself.
It’s good to rise up with a voice that calls for help when no words resonate.
The way of fighting is somehow cool, right?
I feel like in the OVA, the ending was where Kaoru sees her sister in the end and gives up on revenge.
The text is somewhat like this.
Well…
It’s too thin and tight because it’s been rubbed too much.
>>37
It is important that you can earn replies by posting this image, so the content itself doesn’t really matter.
The way of revenge is also lukewarm, which is a minus.
>>38
I still believe that Kaoru should have been properly killed off as a story element.
>>41
The appeal of revenge stories lies in their aesthetic of not involving others.
If it’s deemed acceptable to kill someone just because they are an important person to the target of revenge, it will only lead to disastrous destructive behavior.
>>49
It was a destructive act by guys who, even without killing Kaoru, were not only pathetic but also lacked any real sense of revenge, right?
>>49
But I, as the one being revenged upon, have my loved ones killed by the reasoning of those who seek revenge, and I throw away even the non-killing as an atonement as a revenger myself.
I wanted to see the two of us become a mass of hatred and kill each other in a gruesome way.
The Meiji government is the worst for burning down temples along with the children living there under the anti-Buddhist movement.
Since Kenshin didn’t kill for pleasure or personal grudges, if he can be as rational as Saito, then that’s all there is to it.
It’s really difficult to have a revenge theme for a weekly serialization in your 20s… Just finishing it is impressive…
If the thread’s image has no combat power and is just living normally, and if there is even a slight feeling of regret for letting his sister die upon reuniting with Kenshin, then please just die… because if that kind of approach is taken, Kenshin himself will seriously have no options left.
I am thinking about Ishidou Raijuta.
Even if it’s been said a million times and discussed endlessly, if it’s a theme you can’t handle, then the conversation shouldn’t have started in the first place.
Compared to the thread image, the revenge seems more like just a name; those who wanted to cause a scene for the sake of it and those who were taking out their frustrations under the guise of revenge seem more reasonable.
If these guys have a reason, it would become a divine punishment.
I was able to avoid the worst-case scenario where Kenshin dies quietly.
I have no reason to be lectured by a murderer just for trying to take over the dojo for a little profit or for spreading opium!
>>55
Kenshin said that he’s taking them down for personal reasons too.
This clingy behavior feels like a connection.
In the first place, he is created as a contrary and negative antagonist in contrast to Shishio.
I understand the reasoning, but I think it’s ridiculous what this person is saying! It’s not strange to have that kind of reaction.
In the Hokkaido chapter, a master of Chinese martial arts claiming to be a relative from China is coming for revenge, so wait for it.
I feel sorry for the legitimate revenge, but since I can’t die now, I don’t think the protagonist can ask for forgiveness.
If you can’t do it, I don’t think it’s a theme you should get involved with.
>>63
What do you mean that Thorfinn and Hild from Vinland Saga were a mistake?
>>66
Quite…
I like the part where Kenshin comes back.
Revenge is not good, but it feels nice!
I like the simplicity of the starry night edition without any unnecessary elements.
In the case of the thread image, the sister’s sense of revenge is wavering…
>>70
Here, it’s like Kaoru is overprotecting Kenshin too much, making Tomoe seem like a strange person…
>>73
When I went to take revenge on the person who killed my fiancée, it turned out to be a mentally unstable child, which would definitely shake me quite a bit.
Recently, when I read the original work, the panel of “I absolutely don’t want to work!!” was so painful that I wondered why it was being edited like that…
>>71
When asked why, I can only say it’s because of the times…
It’s not denied that fighting out of a desire for revenge is also valid.
The process is crap.
I’m sorry that I have something I need to do like Vash, but even so, I can’t die. I can somewhat understand that, but Kenshin doesn’t really have anything like that.
>>74
That’s an opinion that doesn’t seem like you read the same manga…
>>77
What Kenshin wants to do is ultimately self-realization.
It doesn’t have to be Kenshin.
The live-action version that omitted the mistakes on the engawa feels just fine, so the kind family-killing is simply unnecessary.
Even if the vengeance of fate is justified, I have no obligation to die.
>>78
Kenshin doesn’t think like that, which is why things get troublesome.
Even though he is the younger brother of Toma, he wasn’t driven mad; he was already vile from the beginning.
I would never have imagined that my sister was seriously in love with the assassin who killed her fiancé.
The fact that Bara died in an accident is too much noise.
I am saving people as atonement for my sins.
Please don’t say things like “die,” I beg you to spare me.
That’s how it feels to refuse firmly.
It’s not a story where you balance things out based on the weight of sin…
The level of sympathy from readers changes, but…
The live-action version, which has significantly brushed up the points of critique from the original work, really created a genuinely distressing atmosphere with its acting.
