History Awesome / RurouniKenshin

** TheStinger showcases [[spoiler: Kenshin being washed up ashore after failing to recover Kaoru from the stormy sea]]. He is eventually picked up by a [[TheCameo "mysterious man"]], who turns out to be no other than [[spoiler: [[HermitGuru Hiko Seijuro XIII]]]] himself, who exhibits that it is apparently possible [[MundaneMadeAwesome to carry an unconscious man and look awesome doing it]].

!!Rurouni Kenshin: Kyoto Inferno

** Kenshin's battle with Cho. [[spoiler:Despite his superior skill, Kenshin finds himself hard pressed to defeat Cho without a real sword to wield. That is until Arai Seiku arrives with his father's last sword which he then gives to Kenshin. (What sells it really is how he goes straight from grabbing the sword to his [[AsskickingPose battoujutsu stance]].) Nevertheless, Kenshin is still hesitant [[spoiler: to use the blade, thinking it a normal katana and that he might accidentally kill Cho with it. It's only when Cho threatens to kill Arai's infant son that Kenshin springs into action and takes out Cho with one strike. To his relief he finds out that the blade he was carrying is another Sakabatou.]]

**** [[spoiler:For a brief moment, Kenshin sees Shishio amid the chaos and promptly pursues him. Only the discover it was just a [[BodyDouble decoy]], accompanied by others all dressed like Shishio who then gang up on the rurouni. Naturally, Kenshin [[CurbStompBattle kicks their collective asses]].]]
*** [[spoiler:Saitoh, casually cutting his way through Shishio's men while not dropping the cigarette in his mouth. He eventually chooses to dispense with it and start hacking away, not unlike how he fought at [[{{Film/RurouniKenshin}} the Battle of Toba-Fushimi in the first film]].]]
*** [[spoiler:The Oniwabanshu, as the hidden protectors of Kyoto finally get their chance to shine, with Misao leading the charge by taking out a number of Shishio's men with unarmed combat. While Misao has always been an ActionGirl, this portrayal is [[AdaptationalBadass significantly more badass]] than her manga/anime version.]]
*** [[spoiler:Kaoru and Yahiko also get their chance to shine. Kaoru, wielding a staff, takes out a number of Shishio's men on her own, while Yahiko shows much he's improved as a swordsman by using some moves he learned from Kenshin!]]

*** [[spoiler:Sanosuke finally arrives in Kyoto, and proceeds to beat the living hell out of Shishio's mooks, all the while looking for Kenshin and company. He may not have the ''Futae no Kiwami'' at the moment, but he's nonetheless surviving even with the zanbato.]]

** [[spoiler:The opening scene. Saitoh leads an army of policemen, who are promptly slaughtered by the Juppongatana. Soujiro in particular gets a standout scene here, killing an entire police squad in seconds with speed and precision. Despite the loss of his men, Saitoh defiantly stands up to Shishio, who makes his fist full appearance.]]
** [[spoiler:Kenshin arriving at the Shingetsu village, which has been overrun by Shishio's forces, and dispatching a number of Shishio's men. Despite his apparent cool demeanor, you can tell he's furious by the ferocity and impact of his attacks. In retrospect though, those same men did hang the corpses of Eiji's parents in full view of the village. Had they not done so, they wouldn't have incurred the [[BewaretheNiceOnes normally kindhearted]] rurouni's [[BerserkButton wrath]].]]

** [[spoiler:Kenshin's duel with Soujiro. Throughout the fight Soujiro matches the rurouni in skill and quickness, with neither gaining the advantage. In the end they each decide to settle the duel with [[IaijutsuPractitioner Battoujutsu]], with Soujiro emerging the victor by breaking Kenshin's Sakabatou in two!]]

** [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki]] vs. [[AwesomeYetPractical Gatotsu Zero-Shiki]]!! [[note]]Ends with a draw[[/note]].

**** You've forgotten Sanosuke's first major fight after his HeelFaceTurn; against Shikijo, Aoshi's subordinate. Both are power fighters and are evenly matched. But Shikijo seems to only care about strength which is why he follows Aoshi. unlike Sanosuke and comes off as somewhat arrogant. Sanosuke delivers a lecture about how Kenshin is strong because he has people he cares about, while Aoshi just wants to be the strongest. The outcome? [[spoiler: Sanosuke defeats Shikijo with a single punch to the forehead]]. Sanosuke's fights are all a reflection of his first fight with Kenshin; trying to influence his opponent for the better. It's ironic because he states to one opponent that "personal matters aren't his thing." Badass.

----> '''Kenshin:''' [[spoiler: "Do you know what money can't buy?... What you're begging for now ''(leaps off the gun to deliver a smack that shatters Kanryuu's glasses)'' ...your life."]]

* Now here's an awesome moment from the early parts of the series: When Kenshin bashes a Yakuza's head through the ceiling and says "I wasn't finished speaking." Makes me smile to this day.

* Unbelievable that no one's added this quote from Kenshin's fight with Aoshi in the English manga:

*** Sanosuke's boisterousness, even when contrasted to Kenshin's cool-headedness, manages to hold its own as well. Whether wielding a zanbato or wasting opponents via hand-to-hand combat, he delivers it with wisecracks and pure awesome.

** This troper thinks Saitou's first Crowning Moment (the moment that truly revealed how easily he can turn Kenshin's life into a living hell) was when he used Akamaru, a goon to the man who had hired him, to distract Kenshin in a meaningless battle far away from the dojo while Saitou, wearing his police officer disguise to gain their trust, came to the dojo and was let in by Kaoru, then proceeded to simply sit inside sipping tea for hours until the battle ended. When Kenshin returned that night, the moment when he realized that he had left his friends totally unprotected and Saitou could've killed them all at any time was chilling.

** [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki]] vs. [[AwesomeYetPractical Gatotsu Zero-Shiki]]!! Ends with a draw.

*** Finally there's his duel with [[spoiler: Jin-e, after the latter kidnaps Kaoru just to piss him off. For most of the fight, Jin-e has the upper hand and manages to wound Kenshin numerous times. But then Jin-e uses his [[DeadlyGlare Evil Eye]] on Kaoru to make her suffocate, and at this point Kenshin loses it and becomes [[SuperpoweredEvilSide Battousai]]. The enraged rurouni then delivers an ass whooping to the [[AxCrazy Ax Crazy]] swordsman, capping it off with one of his signature [[IaijutsuPractitioner Battoujutsu]] techniques, Sou Ryu Sen.]]

** [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki]] vs. [[AwesomeYetPractical Gatotsu Zero-Shiki]]!! [[hottip:*: Ends with a draw.]]

!!The manga and the anime:

* Kenshin's fight with Shishio, [[spoiler: coming after two incredibly difficult fights in which he was heavily injured in which he is repeatedly burned against a man who can take blows from Sano, Saito, ''and'' Aoshi. He proceedes to get up and hit Shishio with a massive combination, culminating in the Kuzu Ryu Sen, then defeating him with the Amakeru Ryu no Hirameki. Shishio then ''bursts into flames'' and dies]].
** Shishio's own moment comes [[spoiler: ''after his death'' when Houji commits suicide and finds himself in Hell, Shishio and Yumi have been waiting there for him... and Shishio calmly announces his intent to overthrow the Devil:]]

**** You've forgotten Sanosuke's first major fight after his heel-face turn; against Shikijo, Aoshi's subordinate. Both are power fighters and are evenly matched. But Shikijo seems to only care about strength which is why he follows Aoshi. unlike Sanosuke and comes off as somewhat arrogant. Sanosuke delivers a lecture about how Kenshin is strong because he has people he cares about, while Aoshi just wants to be the strongest. The outcome? [[spoiler: Sanosuke defeats Shikijo with a single punch to the forehead]]. Sanosuke's fights are all a reflection of his first fight with Kenshin; trying to influence his opponent for the better. It's ironic because he states to one opponent that "personal matters aren't his thing." Badass.
* While it was impressive how Saitou [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomped]] Sanosuke in their second fight, you have to give Sanosuke some credit for standing up to a guy who was Kenshin's level and relentlessly mocking him the whole time. Sano even acknowledges that he's weak now, but neither Saito nor Kenshin started out strong either. He kind of gains Saitou's respect, and as a result, Saitou informs of him of his main weakness.
--->'''Sanosuke:''' "Even a fledgling can break your arm."
* When Shishio's headquarters are blowing up, the way is blocked for Saito, and it looks like certain doom. [[spoiler: He then calmly starts smoking, walks back and says his goodbye. He completes it by showing up in the Jinchuu and stating that he is the only Shinsengumi considered immortal]].
* Enishi's first fight with Kenshin has him defeating Kenshin's ultimate attack, Amakakeru Ryuu no Hirameki. That's not the CrowningMomentOfAwesome. [[spoiler: The crowning moment of awesome is later when he [[HeroicBSOD traumatizes Kenshin so badly that Kenshin chains his sword, and goes to a dump to slowly die]], by making him believe that he had killed Kaoru - blood-spattered life-like Kaoru doll included]].
** Enishi's second fight deserves some credit as well. After all, he did [[spoiler: block all 9 hits of the Kuzu Ryu Sen, countered Kenshin's Ryu Tsui Sen and Ryu Sho Sen (the former by essentially by double jumping!), ate up Kenshin's Ryu Kan Sen with his Senran Tosei, and finally freaking palmed Kenshin in the face before he could even say Kuzu Ryu Sen, much less use the attack, all of which was done one after the other. And this is BEFORE his Nerves of Insanity activate.]]
* Aoshi not only figures out Enishi's true plan, [[spoiler:and reveals it to everyone else: he also sets it up so that he will duel Enishi's partner Gein. After Gein taunts Aoshi that he if Aoshi continues his ways he will only be an innkeeper, Aoshi says that isn't such a bad life revealing the answer to his meditation. He then kills [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Gein with his own attack]], after telling Gein that he will kill him with his own dark powers while being surrounded by flames]].
** Aoshi gets another in the Jinchuu arc when he faces Suzaku of the Su-shin. [[spoiler: Suzaku's talent allows him to use the same exact moves his opponent uses against him, and his versions of the attacks are somewhat faster and stronger. During his battle with Aoshi, he is able to use every attack in his arsenal, including Aoshi's ultimate attack, Kaiten Kenbu Rokuren and even disarms him. Just when he's about to kill him, Aoshi sends the guy reeling back with a single side kick to the face! Suzaku then charges again, thinking that in the end, his swords will prevail over Aoshi's kempo. However, Aoshi catches one of the swords and BREAKS it with just one hand! The line before he breaks it makes it even more badass.]]
--->'''Aoshi:''' [[spoiler: Because they are my swords, they can never defeat me.]]
* Yahiko's got quite a few. He beats [[spoiler:one of the Juppongatana by copying the man's technique and riding the shockwave from the dynamite thrown at him to deliver his imitation of Kenshin's Ryu Tsui Sen after being repeatedly stabbed and blown up.]] He then proceeds, despite being [[spoiler:nearly dead, to face down the massive giant that comes next.]] However, what is quite possibly his coolest moment comes [[spoiler:after the timeskip, where he indicates his mastery of Kamiya Kasshin Ryu by stopping a sword with two fingers]]. [[{{Badass}} Bad. Ass.]]
** No, while it's great, it's not his most coolest moment. His coolest moment came during Jinchuu arc, where [[spoiler:he fight [[GiantMook Kujiranami Hyogo,]] armed with [[{{BFG}} GATLING GRENADE LAUNCHER]], who ready to [[UnstoppableRage destroy the town just to find Kenshin.]] Those stopping him from entering the town by [[IHaveTheHighGround cornering him in a narrow street]], along with several policeman, and almost manages to stop him... if his enemy is not such an unstoppable giant. Luckily, Kenshin arrives. And then while Hyogo threatens to destroy the town had Kenshin not killed him, Yahiko verbally slap him to his senses, making him surrender in tears.]] That's, my friends, is true '''CROWNING MOMENT'''. [[spoiler:And to prove his point, he's ''willing'' to fight Hyogo ''[[HandicappedBadass with just one arm]]''.]]

---->'''Yahiko:'''[[spoiler: '''NO INJURIES HERE!''']]
---->'''Officer 1:'''[[spoiler: No injuries?]]
---->'''Officer 2:'''[[spoiler: The child, he has no injuries.]]

* Saitou's fight against Usui culminates in [[spoiler:Saitou using an attack so powerful it not only splits Usui's shield in half but also rips his torso from his still-standing legs and pins him to the wall across the room. Usui then spends his last living moments listening to Saitou explain to him why he is so pathetic he barely even warrants pity.]]

--->'''Saitou:''' [[spoiler: But there is a safer place you can run to. It's called Hell.]]

--->'''Saitou:''' [[spoiler: You can tame a dog with food. You can tame a man with money. But nothing can ever tame the Mibu wolf.]]
*** And then finally, you get this line...
--->'''Saitou:''' [[spoiler: Whether it's the past or the present, the Shinsengumi will always be the Shinsengumi. A wolf will always be a wolf. And a Hitokiri will always be a Hitokiri. Isn't that right, Battousai?]]

** Third one: In the Kyoto arc, [[spoiler: [[Main/GetAHoldOfYourselfMan forcing the wangsty and depressed Kaoru to get out of bed]], pack her stuff and go after Kenshin, instead of complaining because he left her. ]]

--->'''Kaoru:''' But, when I take the ribbon from my hair and put this uniform on my shoulders, I have the resolution of a swordsman and gender no longer matters. So in that aspect, I'm no different from you.
** Misao's ''true'' CMOA comes after that, though. [[spoiler: It's when she stops Kamatari from [[DrivenToSuicide killing himself]]. "I detest him and I can't really understand the feelings of a gay guy... but I'm nevertheless touched by his devotion towards his loved one."]]
** This one is often [[WhatMeasureIsANonBadass denied by her rabid bashers]], but it's still nice: Kaoru freeing herself from Jin-E's hypnosis and her AndIMustScream state, [[PluckyGirl via pure sheer willpower]]. No, haters, she didn't do it because Jin-E killed himself; actually, Jin-E commited suicide '''''because''''' he had been defeated by '''both''' Kenshin and Kaoru: he beat him as Battousai, she undid his "unbreakable" hypnosis.
* Yumi's [[spoiler: death]] is both a Main/TearJerker and her CMOA, specially for [[spoiler: how calmly she accepts what has just happened and uses her last breath to explain how she's finally free of her frustrations and feelings of uselessness after being only a Main/NeutralFemale for so long.]]
* Shishio`s main [=CMoA=] was defeating not one, not two, not three, but ''four'' of the most powerful fighters in Japan all at once. Admittedly, they've all come out of brutal fights but the ease with which he completely defeats their ultimate techniques (or, in Sano's case, taking it head on and not even flinching, then defeating the MadeOfIron Sano in one punch) marks him as the most {{Badass}} Rurouni Kenshin character right there.
** The height of Shishio's awesome comes after he takes the Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki. Keep in mind, this attack has floored and incapacitated both people who have felt it thus far. Well, Shishio takes it at ''double strength'' - and '''gets back up'''. Cue OhCrap reaction.
*** Not only did Shishio take the Amakakeru Ryuu no Hirameki, but before that he'd taken pretty much every OTHER attack of Kenshin's moveset '''in a row'''. After he got hit with the Amakakeru Ryuu no Hirameki, his body temperature exceeded his limits and he started thrashing about and clawing at his chest to relieve the excess heat. A few seconds later, he's calm again and ready to fight

* If Shishio takes the gold for "Most Badass Villain", Soujirou definitely takes the silver. In his first appearance, [[spoiler:he breaks Kenshin's sword by beating him at Battoujutsu, which is Kenshin's specialty. In their second fight, Kenshin is completely unable to land a single blow on him until he uses Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki. Soujirou's even able to figure out the secret to the technique!]]
** Also, when Soujirou[[spoiler: decides that evil is bad (weird, eh?) and goes insane.]]

* The whole Shishio fight in general for everyone involved.
* Early moment: when Kenshin bashes a Yakuza's head through the ceiling and says "I wasn't finished speaking." Makes me smile to this day.

-->Bakumatsu... In Kyoto, there was once an Imperialist known as the Hitokiri Battousai. He was a man who killed like a demon and cleared the way for the new Meiji era with his bloody sword, but with the end of the upheaval, he disappeared without a trace.

--> '''Aoshi:''' It's still too early to gloat. One width of paper closer, and I'd have sliced your jugular.
-->'''Kenshin:''' But the width of that paper... is the gulf between us.
* An early quote by Sanosuke

* A subtle CMOA for Magdaria from the {{filler}} Shimabara arc. She, her bodyguard Shouzo and Sanosuke have barely escaped a lethal trap, but poor Shouzo has been pinned under debris after a DivingSave to help her. Her reaction? "I... I won't let you be buried!", and calmly starts doing her best to push rocks off him. What makes it awesome is how she is a very delicate IllGirl almost [[IncurableCoughOfDeath in the last stage of tuberculosis]], so any big physical efforts will make either her collapse or downright kill her -- [[PluckyGirl but she refuses to let that stop her]].
** A more open one [[spoiler: doubles with DyingMomentOfAwesome, as Magdaria choses to go TakingTheBullet rather than letting Elsten (the Dutch Ambassador and pretty much the only person who, alongside Kenshin, can save the JapaneseChristian colony) die. She dies in Sano's arms in complete peace, finally free from her bitterness.]]

* Kenshin in both fights with Kujiranami Hyougo [[spoiler: In the first, he calmly cuts the giant cannon attached to the guy's arm, then proceeding to bash said guy's ribs with his sakabatou. The second, has Kenshin simply racing a grenade and cutting the gatling grenade luncher clean off Kujiranami's arm... badass]]. Let's not forget his first fight with Enishi, right after the [[spoiler:bad guy defeats Kenshin's ultimate technique]] and starts bolstering about how awesome he is, Kenshin bitch-slaps him and then says the next line:
--> '''Kenshin:''' I WON'T LET YOU LAY A FINGER ON KAORU DONO!!!

* How is Hiko Seijuro not mentioned yet? Besides being introduced as the most badass sword master ever (a man who raised, trained, and can constantly beat and ridicule Kenshin with no effort), his only official fight that wasn't training counts. For those who don't know, during the Kyoto arc, all of the allies of Kenshin are beating the Juppongatana when Fuji, a freaking GIANT, shows up, ready to kill them all. And then Hiko appears, and not only treats the massive Fuji as an equal, but beats him in two moves while sparing his life. Watsuki said that this character was too powerful to be used in the story too much for a reason.
* Kenshin vs Raijuuta in the manga, probably one of the best uses of TalkingTheMonsterToDeath. Although Kenshin is able to defeat Raijuuta physically despite being able to use only one arm and Raijuuta having range advantage, what seals the deal is Kenshin's words to Raijuuta about what it means to be a killer swordsman. For Raijuuta, who believes wholeheartedly in the art of killing despite never having taken a life, being a swordsman meant the development of special techniques. Kenshin, a man who has taken lives, says that being a swordsman means being able to bear the weight of the lives one has taken and that if Raijuuta can't understand that, then even a child like Yahiko is a better swordsman than him. Sano offers to finish off Raijuuta, but Kenshin decides he has already suffered his punishment. Kenshin's words broke Raijuuta so much that he'll never touch a sword again.

** Kenshin vs. [[MegatonPunch Futae no Kiwami]]! [[hottip:*: Kenshin wins by using [=SouRyuSen=]'s two strikes simultaneously on Sanosuke's fist to negate the power of the Futae no Kiwami]]
** [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki]] vs. [[AwesomeYetPractical Gatotsu Zero-Shiki]]!! [[hottip:*: Ends with a draw]]

** Kenshin. Just Kenshin. Every fight he gets into in the film is a sight to behold, thanks to the filmmaker's creative use of camera angles and some amazing fight choreography. The film does a great job in selling to audience why a scrawny young Bishōnen would be the most feared assassin of the Meiji Revolution.

*** The second instance[[spoiler: is his fight with Sanosuke, where he deftly avoids getting skewered/smashed by Sano's BFS by virtue of his speed and agility, all the while talking the street fighter down]].

---> '''Kenshin:''' [[spoiler: Do you know what money can't buy?... What you're begging for now (leaps off the gun to deliver a smack that shatters Kanryuu's glasses) ...your life.]]
