Kenshin Himura

Kenshin Himura is a legendary swordsman and the main protagonist of the Rurouni Kenshin series. He is known for his humility and pacifism, often referred to as the Hitokiri Battosai from his past life as a fearsome assassin. Kenshin lives with a self-imposed vow of non-violence, wielding a reverse-blade sword to avoid killing, reflecting his profound regret for the lives he took before. Despite his gentle demeanor, he is fiercely loyal to his friends and cares deeply about their well-being. Kenshin's past is complicated by his relationship with Tomoe Yukishiro and his involvement with the political upheavals of the Meiji era. He is skilled in the Hiten Mitsurugi-ryū, a powerful sword technique he vowed never to use again for taking lives. Kenshin is often seen wandering Japan, dispensing justice while seeking personal redemption.
