Act 1: The beginning of the romantic tale. | My feelings. I cannot contain my feelings for this! (!!!)

Cinema-ban makes me all happy and I can’t wait to see the movie. I missed Watsuki-sama drawing Rurouni Kenshin, and reading it straight from the manga. Aaaaah.

Okay, this is gonna be my last RK-related post for tonight; but that doesn’t mean I’m stopping from fangirling for tonight as well. This needs to be compensated with a ridiculously well-written Rurouni Kenshin fanfiction, fanart, or fan-whatever for that matter.

I just need to have more doses of this tonight.

Can I just fangirl forever and ever and ever and ever at how awesome this is?!

TEEAAARRRRS. These happy, happy tears of mine.

On an aesthetic level, I love the way this video was created and rendered, using still black and white images of the manga and somehow giving it movement, as the images all fade and flow into one another, like reflections on water when they are tenderly broken by the ripples created by gently falling raindrops.

And yet on a deeper level… I am reminded of everything I had ever loved about their story, and everything they had inspired and taught me.

He left her behind to protect her, and she left everything behind to follow him.  And when she couldn’t fight the battles by his side, she still fought hard to win the battles that she could.  And she waited — so patiently waited, with complete trust and complete faith — for him to return to her.  And it is that faith, that belief, that promise to return home which kept him fighting and prevented him from succumbing to death, because he knew that he couldn’t possibly die… not when he knew that he couldn’t leave her alone and broken, not when he knew he had to see her smile again.  For him, always, always for him.

And despite the demon he had convinced himself he was, she saw in him the good man he was trying to be, and even when he was willing to succumb to the seductive call of the bloodthirsty monster still clawing inside him, to kill once more in order to save her life… she was the one who determinedly saved him from himself.

She was the epitome of everything he had fought for when he brought about this era: hope, life, redemption, home, love.  She wielded the Sword That Protects Life, and it was the idealistic joke that she somehow recreated into truth, a way of life in which he could finally walk in peace. 

And he was the fulfillment of everything she had ever believed in, all the ideals she never thought could ever be brought into reality.  Here, now, with her, was a man who was legendary not only because of his skill with his sword, but because of his impossibly strong heart, in which he would always, always use his strength to fight for those who are weak, for the people in this era which he had sacrificed everything for.

And she was determined to stay by his side, because for as long as he was protecting the happiness of the people, she would be there to protect his.

But when I feel like giving up
You’re reminding me
That we all fall down sometimes
And when I hit the ground
You lift me up when I am weak
Your arms wrap around me
Your love catches me so I’m letting go 

THIS. THIS. THIS. THIS. THIS.

This is so beautiful. The song, the images, the effort and love put in the video, the comments written by behindtintedglass above (thank you for submitting this! To the video creator, I love you). I can go on forever in describing just how perfect this post is. I can’t help but have this tingly and warm feeling in my chest and I’m reminded how I love not only Kenshin and Kaoru but Rurouni Kenshin as a whole. 

…I have no words. They all took it from me.

This video took it all from me.

Loving this forever and ever.

Here I am, in the school library, checking my social sites and browsing through other stuff, when I decided to check up on kenshin-tv.com again.

And then, this appeared.

…Oh goodness, can I just — asdfaskdhkhklklj (!!!!) I had to log in to tumblr just so I could post this entry and be the fangirl that I am.

The other day, it was this, and now it’s Kenshin and Kaoru being all sweet and intimate, and gosh, I cannot contain this! It’s all so sudden, and I’m in the freaking school library, being my nerdy RuroKen fangirl-self! Oh dear. They are so adding the Jinchuu arc for the remake of the anime series.

My heart.

When she cries by hye-kyo.

I’m all teary and emotional. Awesome fanfic is awesome.

Happy Valentine’s Day, RK fans!

This is from a 30 Oneshots Project I have in the Rurouni Kenshin fandom. I haven’t updated it lately. I have lots of creative ideas going through my head - the problem is I’m too lazy to type it all in. Sigh.

I got to visit the Rurouni Kenshin tumblr again, and I became so nostalgic that I looked for more art in pixiv. It all got back to me - how much I loved the series. Everything about it. Aaah.

This is really my most favorite series ever. (Well, together with FMA.)

Read on.
