Description

Kenji Himura, Kenshin and Kaoru's son, as he appeared in the Rurouni Kenshin OVA Seisouhen (Reflections).

The personality is slightly different however. The Kenji I tried doodling here isn't the daddy-issues one of the OVAs, but the one Watsuki described in the last 'Secret Life of Characters' of the manga:

"Later, Kenji reveals his thoroughbred bloodline. Even without seeing it, he masters Hiten Mitsurugi-ryuu moves just from hearing about them. His personality becomes a bit twisted, as common with many geniuses, becoming more cynical than Saito and more ego-centric than Shishio."

I just love that Kenshin's son would turn out the complete opposite of him, and wanted to do something with the idea... but all I can manage for now are half-baked brat sketches of him. Maybe I'll come up with something eventually.

(Sorry for the inactivity too btw. I'll get cracking on comments and replies soon I promise.)

The OVA was depressing:( Kenshin suffered his whole life and the fact his son hated him.....I prefer your version and the creators version over the OVA's.
