Eya all,

I've been looking into this, and have been eager to get them- but it seems I simply can't get a fixed list of all the rurouni kenshin OVAs, some tell me there are 6, some 3, some 8; I've lost count.

Can anybody list the OVA's and how many episodes of each exist? I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

I you are to go strictly by the first dvd release count, it's six: there are two on the "trust" dvd, two and the "betrayal" dvd, [these four eps together are the "prequel eps"] and two on "reflections/seisouhen" dvd [the series sequel]. HOWEVER, since the release of the "director's cut" versions, each dvd has been smushed together: the two eps of "trust" and the two eps of "betryal" have become signle episodes, labelled "trust and betrayal" respectively. Same thing for the sequel OVA, which is now one long movie-length feature (with Saitou scenes in the bargain ^.^)

Hope that helps!

4 OVAs from Kenshin's past.

And 2 (the ones called "seisouhen") telling what happened after the end of the anime... there are also "new" characters coming from Kenshin's past in these 2 ovas

i only have the trust/betrayal directors cut ova. the directors cuts dont add that much i believe, maybe just a few extra seconds of a fight scene at the end of trust/betrayal as well as different music at some parts. though this may be so, im not sure bout the reflection ova as i only have the trust/betrayal though i have downloaded the normal versions of all of the ovas (trust,betrayal,reflection). its this confusion caused by american publishers that pisses me off. it gets way too complicated when they change the names and stuff (samurai x instead of rurouni kenshin, etc)

Six OVA's? As far as I know, there's Samurai X: Trust and Betrayal. Along with Reflections. And Rurouni Kenshin: Requiem of the Ishin PAtriots. Right?

Rurouni Kenshin Ishinshishi No Requiem is the kenshin movie not a OVA

oh... My mistake. But what's the difference really? Between OVA's and movies? I'v browsed through several websites. Some say OVa's, some say OAV's... I'm confuesd :S

OAV is an alteration to OVA,nothing major to mind about here.

The movies dont necessarily have to do with the actual anime series and may have an unrelated plot whereas OVAs chronicle the events before or after or sometimes,during the anime series and thus they are not the same.

hope this helps.
