Currently there is only one video, Rurouni Kenshin Famous Scenes Ranking, courtesy of Maiwun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color\" style=\"font-size:33px\">Rurouni Kenshin &#8211; Best Scene Ranking<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This project started off with a curiosity on an old RK VHS collection that I had. I had bought a bunch of rental VHS Kenshin tapes back in the day. I posted it on the Rurouni Kenshin reddit and also asked for help if anybody wanted to try to sub it. A few people did volunteer and it was one person who really came through and that was Maiwun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maiwun did such a nice job that I felt the VHS quality even if upsampled wasn&#8217;t good enough so I went searching for a DVD version which I then upsampled to 4K but had to downsample to 1080p for streaming. You can see both VHS and DVD for RK&#8217;s Best Scene Ranking below. This RK special really lets one re-live the excitement and the best anime scenes in the Kenshin fandom back in the 90&#8217;s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-2-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-2-1024x830.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"210\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-2-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/rk-best-scenes-images-2\/\" class=\"wp-image-210\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-3-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-3-1024x805.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"207\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-3-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/rk-best-scenes-images-3\/\" class=\"wp-image-207\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-4-1024x957.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"208\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-4.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/rk-best-scenes-images-4\/\" class=\"wp-image-208\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-1-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-1-1024x534.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"209\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/rk-best-scenes-images-1-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"http:\/\/saitouhajime.com\/rk-best-scenes-images-1\/\" class=\"wp-image-209\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SPECIAL THANKS TO MAIWUN FOR MAKING THIS RUROUNI KENSHIN SPECIAL VIDEO POSSIBLE!
