Rurouni Kenshin Character Guide



Main Characters:

Kenshin Himura

Seiyuu = Suzukaze Mayo
A wanderer and reformed assassin, now he fights to protect the innocent. Formerly known as Hitokiri Battosai. His katana is sharpened only on the back side of the blade so that he can fight without killing. He is 28 years old with red hair and an 'X' shaped scar on his face. He is a master of the sword, but is easily confused by women. He speaks very politely, his favorite word is "Oro?"

Kaoru Kamiya

She is the owner of the Kamita kendo dojo, having inherited it from her father. She is 17 years old, and very cute. She tends to get in over her head trying to help others and requires Kenshin to bail her out. Definitely not famous for her cooking. She does NOT get along with Yahiko, and spends a lot of time chasing him around with a shinai (bamboo sword) seeking vengeance.

Yahiko Myojin

He used to be a yakuzu boy, until he tried to steal Kenshin's wallet. Now he's a student at the Kamiya dojo, and wants to learn the sword to be like Kenshin (his idol). Only 10 years old, he is not known for thinking ahead, and he tends to get into trouble because of it. His main hobby is insulting/teasing Kaoru.

Sanosuke Sagara

Unbelievably strong, now a resident of the Kamiya dojo. Initially, he wields an enormous sword, now he just uses his hands. He is 19 and has a lot to learn. He used to work as a mercenary, and was manipulated by the Hiruma brothers into fighting Kenshin.


Supporting Cast:

Kihei Hiruma

An old man, who at first seems good. He is 45, and not likely to make 46 the way he is going on. He can't fight, but he carries a pistol and thinks he's God because of it. Do not buy a used car from this man.

Gohee Hiruma

A big bearded brute, and younger brother of Himura Kihei. He is 37 years old, and used to be a senior student at the Kamiya Dojo 11 years ago when he was thrown out of the dojo for attacking and wounding another student. Kaoru's father broke his thumb disarming him, and told him to never come back. Obviously, he has a big grudge against the Kamiya family. Not know for intelligence or discretion, he'll keep coming back to cause trouble until he's dead, which probably won't be long.

Aritomo Yamagata

Army Commander? Police chief? He has been searching for Kenshin for ten years. He doesn't want to believe that Kenshin is reformed, think of him as Inspecter Javert from Les Miserables. Unfortunately for him, his entire squad is no match for Kenshin, so his quest to arrest him is pretty much doomed to failure.

Tae Sekihara

Owner of the "Akabeko" sukiyaki restaurant. Typical Japanese hostess, pretty and well-refined. Akabeko is the preferred hangout of the Kamiya dojo residents, eventually the local thugs should learn to stop trying to cause trouble there.

Mr. Policeman

I haven't found out his real name yet. He's the local police lieutenant, but he and his men often end up outclassed against the bad guys of this series, and he usually ends up begging Kenshin for help.

Jusanro Tani

A very rich man, the target of Kurogasa. Probably a big man in local politics from the way he acts.

Jine Udo "Kurogasa"

An assassin who looks like an escaped X-man or maybe Zeiram. A vicious fighter, he does not hesitate to kill as many people as he has to if they get in his was. He is searching for a worthy opponent, and has found one in Kenshin. Unscrupulous, he is not above kidnapping or blackmail to get what he wants. Uses two katana, much like the historical character: Musashi Miyamoto (circa 1200).

Megumi Takani

Ahen no onna. (I think "Ahen" is "Opium".) She is very beautiful and also very sly. She will say and do anything to get her own way.

Kanryuu Takeda

Rich, and evil with it.

Beshimi

Bird-like ninja, special weapon - poison shells flicked at high speed.

Hyoutoko

Giant fat man, special weapon - breathing fire.

Hannya

Another ninja, he wears an oni mask. Very fast, he's much more dangerous than Beshimi or Hyoutoko.

Aoshi Shinomori

A master

Tsubame Sanjou

Seiyuu = Shiratori Yuri
Girl who works at Akabeko. Yahikos fancy. Appears in a side-story about Yahiko.

Mikio Nagaoka

Yakuza type who extorts money from Tsubame.

Miyauchi Maekawa

Martial Arts Teacher, friend of Kaorus father.

Yutarou Tsukayama

About Yahikos age

Raijuuta Isurugi

Big, mad and somewhat dangerous.
