In the aftermath, Enishi is arrested and breaks down in prison while reading Tomoe's diary sent by Kaoru as he finally understands his sister's final resolve. At the end, Kenshin and Kaoru visit Tomoe's grave to thank her, while holding each other's hands as they leave.
This fourth entry was produced at the same period of time with the fifth entry. The film started shooting on November 4, 2018, and finished on June 28, 2019. Large-scale shooting for more than 7 months was carried out at 43 locations nationwide, including Kyoto, Nara, Shiga, Mie, Hyogo, Kumamoto, Hiroshima, Tochigi, Saitama, Shizuoka, Osaka, and Nagano. It utilized a total of 6,000 extras.[11] During shooting of the film, Satoh faced the major difficulty of doing scenes where Kenshin battles a large amount of enemies by himself. There were several turns of the camera as these fights occurred in order to make the battles more appealing which made it more tiring than one on one battles but at the cost of becoming more tired. The final battle between Kenshin and Enishi had to be remade several times because Satoh got exhausted of moving four times in total. Satoh praised Arata's work as Enishi as he made the antagonist terrifying to the point the comical Kenshin acts with more tension in response to his threats which made him drop the signature sound effect \"Oro\". Arata also praised Satoh's works as he carried the franchise across several years in the live-action films.[12]
Critical response to The Final has generally positive. The Japan Times gave it three stars and a half with comments focused on its fight sequences and the conclusion it gives to Kenshin's arc.[22] Decider also enjoyed the fight sequences and acting though he felt that Sanosuke's weak side might come across an unintentional hilarious during the final act. Nevertheless, the inclusion of Seta Sojiro was praised for Ryunosuke Kamiki's performance as the character became an aid to Kenshin and wants to see his resolution to his life as a pacifist while also enjoying the bigger focus on Misao and Saito. The romance between Kenshin and Kaoru was criticized though as being underdeveloped.[23] Asian Movie Web felt the movie initially suffered from a slow pacing and that some characters have little roles in comparison to their previous works. Nevertheless, while there were changes in the script, the reviewer liked how Misao and Shinomori have more screen time and that the choreographer Kenji Tanigaki outdid himself in the making of the fights, most notably the ones involving Kenshin, Enishi and Sojiro.[24] Fiction Horizon also noted while that there were several changes to the narrative, the essential themes focused on the manga were properly followed by the movie, most notably Kenshin's quest for redemption.[25]
The popularity of the series made Warner Bros. then decided to adapt the story on the big screen. Starting from the initial trilogy, namely Rurouni Kenshin Part I: Origins which was released in 2012, then Kyoto Inferno in 2014, and The Legend Ends. The fourth film, Rurouni Kenshin: Final Chapter Part I, was released on June 18 yesterday on the Netflix platform. Meanwhile, in Japanese theaters, it was already released on April 23 yesterday. Here is the final discussion of the film.
The official website for the 'final chapter' films in the live-action film series based on Nobuhiro Watsuki's Rurouni Kenshin manga revealed on Thursday that Kasumi Arimura (When Marnie Was There's Marnie, live-action ERASED's Airi Katagiri, live-action Strobe Edge's Ninako Kinoshita) will play the character Tomoe Yukishiro in the films. Tomoe was Kenshin's wife during his days as the assassin Battōsai, and her story ties into Kenshin's iconic X-shaped scar. Kenshin and Tomoe's relationship was previously portrayed in the Rurouni Kenshin: Trust & Betrayal original video anime (OVA) project.
The wandering swordsman will return for his final battle. Warner Brothers Japan announced today that a two-part \"Final Chapter\" from the live-actin film adaptation project based on Nobuhiro Watsuki's action jidaigeki manga series Rurouni Kenshin is set to be released in Japan in the summer of 2020.
The \"Final Chapter\" will adapt the manga's final \"Jinchu\" arc, including the episodes also told in the 1999 OVA \"Tsuioku-hen/Trust & Betrayal\" about the past story of Kenshin as Hitokiri Battousai during the final years of the Bakumatsu era, explaining the origins of his cross-shaped scar. The official title for each part will be announced at a later date.
Keishi Otomo returns to the Rurouni Kenshin franchise with a direct sequel to the Kyoto duology called Rurouni Kenshin: The Final, this film was filmed back-to-back with The Beginning which takes place before the events of the first film. With it being a franchise with many characters of likeable and most being well written, there are a lot of characters returning, heroes and villains. Some are Kaoru, Sanosuke, Saito, Aoshi and Misao.Rurouni Kenshin: The Final adapts the Jinchu Arc which marks the first appearance of Yukishiro Enishi and Yukishiro Tomoe. Enishi witnessed the (accidental) killing of his older sister, by her then-husband, Himura Kenshin. Filled with grief and anger, he swore to bring jinchu \"judgment from man\" to the man who killed his only sister. Ten years later, Yukishiro Enishi have formed The Six Comrades, a group of six men (himself included), to assist him in his revenge against Kenshin, also being the boss of the Shanghai Mafia. We quicky learn that he was the person who supplied Makimachi Misao in the Kyoto arc, so Enishi have been pulling some of the strings.I'll be totally honest here, I didn't really like the first arc, I found it okey at most. The second act was an improvement but the editing and some of the writing wasn't the best, also The Six Comrades came off rather silly and not menacing enough. But I appreciated the costumes and how accurate it was to the anime and manga. There were no emotion or stakes in the fight sequences, but that changed in the third act. Oh yes indeed. The third and final act was truly amazing, with Himura Kenshin going up against Yukishiro Enishi, the fight between them are some of the finest fight sequences in the franchise (up to this point) and there's true emotion as the history behind them is well written and it's easy to sympathize with both of them, it's also an unpredictable action sequence that kept me on the edge of my seat.The musical score wasn't as epic in scale as Kyoto Inferno and The Legend Ends, but Naoki Sato created a great score that kept it suspense and dramatic. It helped a lot with the fight sequences. The fight choreography was stunning, like always. Takeru Satoh's performance as Himura Kenshin continues to be a clear highlight in the franchise, the dramatic work and the stunt work, great actor. The director and cinematographer shot the movie for more than 7 months and was carried out at 43 locations nationwide, including Kyoto, Hiroshima and Osaka. There's some truly beautiful locations and the sets they built and used, remarkable. The cinematography and direction were top notch.Rurouni Kenshin: The Final had a great ending which tied up things nicely, and this was supposed to be the last movie. But I just feel like Keishi Otomo nor the cast is done with the franchise, it feels like there are endless of opportunities, another film with Kenshin or a spin-off with Saito Hajime. Non the less, we got another great samurai film that's stylish and entertaining. 59ce067264
