blockbuster hit Rurouni Kenshin, which opened on Aug. 25, 2012, grossed over 3 billion yen at the box office during its run. The popular drama will return after two years in summer 2014 as a sequel tentatively titled Rurouni Kenshin: The Great Kyoto Fire Arc/The Last of the Legend Arc.
As one can see from the title, the sequel will be divided into two parts, each covering one arc of the original manga. The two films will be released one after another in the summer of 2014. Fans can expect nationwide road shows and promotions even bigger than the first movie!
Despite the larger scale, the work will still capture the essence of the critically acclaimed previous work. Director Keishi Otomo hopes to once again challenge himself to a new height in his career through this movie.
Actor Takeru Satoh will of course reprise his role as the protagonist, Kenshin. In the previous film, Satoh was able to combine his superb acting skills with the character's appeal for the fans. Furthermore, Saki Takei, who acted as Kamiya Kaoru, will also reprise the role, with others such as Yu Aoi, Munetaka Aoki, and Yosuke Eguchi in the cast, much to the joy of fans.
On top of the old cast, new members have been added for the sequel. Actor Tatsuya Fujiwara will take on the role of Kenshin's successor and nemesis, Shishio Makoto. Fujiwara had previously attained international fame through his role in the movie Shield of Straw and will once challenge an antagonistic role.
The new movie will be based on the popular “Kyoto Arc” from the original manga. The setting for the movie will move west from Tokyo to the old capital, and captures the drama of the turbulent period in history. In particular, because the movie will be split into two parts, fans can look forward to a condensed and well-crafted story in the movies.
Rurouni Kenshin the movie is based on the manga of the same title by Nobuhiro Watsuki. The series is a bestseller that has sold more than 57 million volumes to date and has been translated into many languages, becoming an international bestseller as both manga and anime. Director Otomo's first Rurouni Kenshin movie was a worldwide sensation, and the sequel based in Kyoto is expected to garner just as much attention, if not more.
Comment from Takeru Satoh (Himura Kenshin):
I feel very fortunate to be able to play Kenshin again, but I am also feeling the pressure of having to cross over an even higher hurdle. This time, the movie will portray the “Kyoto Arc,” which is one of the most popular arcs and considered the climax of the manga. I am glad we will be able to capture the great story on screen, but at the same time, this will also be a very difficult project. However, I don't think of it as 'surpassing the previous film,' but rather, I would like to make a movie that fans will approve of. As such, I will place my trust in the director and play Kenshin based on the soul of the original manga, and challenge the new scale and action in the sequel. I started practicing for combat scenes and horse-riding since a few months ago. All the cast and staff are shooting this movie from the bottom of their hearts so I hope our fans will support us as well!
Comment from Takuya Fujiwara (Shishio Makoto):
Rurouni Kenshin is a childhood anime for me, so to be able to play Shishio this time is like a dream come true. Shishio is one of the most popular characters, so I will do my best to take everyone's suggestions and portray him the best I can. This is my second role as the bad guy since Shield of Straw and I am looking forward to it!
Comment from director Tetsuya Otomo:
The first movie was a combination of the hard work of a top cast and staff, and we were able to convey the passion of many of them through the movie. This time, as the theme is the Great Kyoto Fire, we hope to portray Shishio with even more fiery passion than before. All of the cast will return with more spirit and power than before, with more drama, more action, and a cast and setting that follows the original works. The sequel will be a step up from the original and we hope fans will respond well to it as well.
Kenshin's battleground and enemies have also changed. On top of Shishio, he will also have to fight characters such as Aoshi and Soujiro. However, the stronger his opponents, the more appealing he will become as a hero. This time, we will be doing our best to show the best sides of the antagonists too, so fans can look forward to a great casting as well!
On top of that, I also hope to draw out the human in Kenshin. As a wanderer who seeks to protect those around him while welcoming the crisis in the changing era, Kenshin has to not only fight for those around him, but for himself as well. From his vow to stop killing to his new great enemies such as Katto, the movie will bring forward ideas beyond just a historical drama. Fans can look out for exciting, new drama scenes too.
Furthermore, I hope to also capture the conflict of interests that is prevalent in our world today as well as in Kenshin's world. I think many viewers will be able to resonate with the tension in it, and be able to feel for the new, even more charming Takeru Satoh/Himura Kenshin. As the last of the series, I want to end it with a work that no one else can ever re-create, a work that will become the "last of the legends!”

Apparently, Ikaw lang ang nagsasasabing pangit ang live action, when they gave justice to the anime. ayus lahat: fight scenes, characters, tsaka soundtrack. may konting pagkakaiba nga lang sa story ng live action sa OVA ng anime. pero ok lang yun.

maganda to , at andito pa yung gumanap na light yagami sa DeathNote live :))

sa akin lang naman watchable siya
ang downside medyo slow paced ang story at
di ko kasi nakita sa lead actor ang diiference ng pagiging wanderer niya sa pagiging BATTOUSAI di siya convincing parang naging movie tuloy ito para sa mga die fans ng lead actor tuloy yung film
saka naisalba nila yu aoi playing Takani Megumi at Emi Takei playing Kamiya Kaoru ang pelikula kasi ang galing nilang actress ::)
ok ito sa mg taong di fans ng anime at di pa napapanood ang series
panoorin nyo na lang ang Yojimbo at Sanjuro ni akira kurosawa :-X

Live-Action Rurouni Kenshin Sequels' On-Set Photos Debut
(http://cdn03.animenewsnetwork.com/images/cms/news/69795/news_large_okwba46o9567.jpg)
More screenshots from next summer's two live-action Rurouni Kenshin sequel films debuted on Tuesday. These photos preview the scenes where Sōjirō Seta assassinates real-life historical figure Toshimichi Ōkubo at the Kioizaka slope.
(http://cdn02.animenewsnetwork.com/images/cms/news/69795/news_large_okwba46o9300.jpg)
The production filmed these scenes at Koko-en Garden in Himeji on September 13. In them, title character Kenshin Himura (played Takeru Satoh) discovers the assassinated Toshimichi Ōkubo (Kazufumi Miyazawa) and encounters Sōjirō Seta (Ryunosuke Kamiki).
(http://cdn03.animenewsnetwork.com/images/cms/news/69795/news_large_a46o9153.jpg)
Kamiki has been a fan of Nobuhiro Watsuki's original manga, and he wanted to play Sōjirō even before the sequel films were green-lit. He recounted that two years ago, he kicked off a wall and said to Satoh, "Look! Shukuchi" — a reference to Sōjirō's signature technique of running on walls. Kamiki recalled bashfully, "I made Takeru-kun grin that time, but … (laughs)."
Director Keishi Ōtomo commented that since Kamiki was already a fan of Sōjirō, he had the background to capture Sōjirō's beguiling way of smiling, even as he plots to kill people. Miyazawa said that even though Ōkubo existed in real-life history, "I think you would be able to see a new Ōkubo [in this film]."

yep shishio arc A.K.A kyoto arc nga ito sir..
malamang meron nga yan lahat since soujiro is one major character
in the kyoto arc too... pero di ko lang maisip kung paano nila
pagkakasyahin lahat ito sa movie.. 2hours and a few extra minutes maybe
ang length nito pero mahirap talaga isipin hihihi sa dami ng nangyari

could they fit it all though. that would be awesome kung magagawa nila nang maganda. action packed pero tight parin ang story.
-
it is possible that they could fit it but most of the fight scenes
would be cut short meaning they wont put most of the fight happened in the series
or only few moment will be made for each fight scene.. just a fast paced battle

oopppsss hihihi mali pala ako dito
i think magkakasya lahat itong shishio arc dahil TWO-PART movie sequel ito hahaha
so we will have the 1st part next year.. then the second part the year after..
so kahit pahabain masiyado itong story sa isang movie..
magkakasiya ang buong arc dahil may part two siya..
