Rurouni Kenshin (Samurai X)

Rurouni Kenshin is one of the best anime I have ever seen and read. It has something for everbody, action, adventure, romance, comedy, drama, you name it, Kenshins got it. When I first herd about it, I thought it was just another pointless samurai action anime. Then I saw an advertisment on one of my tapes and thought it look pretty good, I loved the song. So I decided to check it out and when I did I couldn't stop watching it. It is now my favorite anime. Rurouni Kenshin is rooted with a meaningful plot, almost everything that happens, happens for a reason, political, religous, or just presonal,every fighting seen has a reason (The only episodes that probably don't have meaning are the filler ones, but that doesn't matter cause those ones are usually in there for the comedy). It has a tremendous amount of comedy. some of the seens will make you cry cause there so funny. The characters are great, each have there own unique personality and dramatic passed, which makes it hard to not love the characters. The animation is superb, it gets better as the animator's drawing talent gets better. The sountrack is amazingly good. The music is what acually got me into Rurouni Kenshin, its hard not to like any of the songs. This is truely one of the best anime you can posably see or read in this lifetime. Mr. Watsuki Nobuhiro is a genius. Personally, I like the manga better than the anime cause the manga has the best arc in it and because the anime has alot of dumb filler eps. towards the end of the series (this doesn't bother me that much cause some filler eps are pretty amusing). Either way The show should have you glued to your seat and your eyes glued to the tv (or manga).
