| Was just wondering what percentage of people active in this forum were introduced to Kenshin via this anime, out of curiosity |
| Yes, my first introduction to this series |
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.  |
| I've never watched the OG series, but even this remake has this characteristic 90s vibes. |
 |
| I’d heard of it but was never bothered to watch it. But I thought I’d try out the remake |
| Watched the original series & didnt finish it after the Kyoto Arc back when i was a kid... Completed the live action series way before the remake was even announced... |

| No. I saw the original anime but never finished it (not that it’s bad, it’s bc I was too busy with my life) |
| If I had to choose between One Piece and a girlfriend...I think I'll go with One Piece |
| Streamed 7 episodes of the '96 adaptation in 2013 but didn't continue it. I've seen the first three live-action movies (Origins, Kyoto Inferno and The Legend Ends) so I have an idea of what the next season is going to be like. |

 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| I knew about kenshin anime but never watched the original and I didn't watch this one as well. I only read a spinoff manga of kenshin. |
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.  |
| I discovered rurouni kenshin when I was 11 or 12 and it’s been my favorite since. I thought the show getting a remake was cool, but I didn’t really care about it |

| It was my first 20+ volumes manga series I've collected completely, starting as a child. -g- Even though I have a lot of gripes and issues with the development of the series + the huge disappointment and dislike for that pussy mangaka regarding the way he handled the story and got heavily influenced in a bad way by lots of female fans (way before even involving his personal 'slips' in real life), it's still something I treasure. Still have an older picture on my hdd/sd To answer the question, no. I read the manga years earlier. Edit: @Perrin4869 |

My Rereads | My Favorite Mangaka | Soylent Green Buy stuff, or buy at least your favorites if you can afford it - Don't be lame. D W-W&N 🤍 MAL is far from being my primary site for literature, which is why I’ve stopped doing single-chapter updates. Baka-Updates and two French sites are far superior—more detailed, complete, and less restrictive. They're perfect for manga, light novel, and book collectors like me, making the process much less stressful and tiring. -g- |
| I watched the OG only last year. The remake came out 1 or 2 months after I finished the OG. |

| While I watched the original all of the hubub around the remake informed me that there's been a manga sequel (Hokkaido Arc) for several years now. So in a sense the remake reintroduced me to new aspects of the series, which is cool. |
 |
| Knew about the original from its opening but never got into it, so the remake was my first experience with it but not what introduced me to the original. |

| no, it was the 90s kenshin but i watched it in 2023 before this adaptation came out. |
 |
| Heard of it when I was a teen but was never a big anime person in my teens and finally when I was getting around to the idea of watching the anime, I heard about the reboot and opted to watch it instead of the OG. |
| Yes but not really, i watch the OG back in the day when it was airing on our TV, but only watch episode here and there, probably didn't understand the story at all because i'm still very young. |
 |
| Yes and no, i only watched the prequel ova since it was heavily recommended to me, always wanted to see what was the main story about so that remake came at the best of times |
| Deep dark fantasies |
| Watched and read it some time ago. Didn't like the fillers and how censored/simplified some scenes in anime were to compare with manga. I think the new adaptation is better than the old one. Trust and Betrayal is the best part though. |
