At the beginning of the year, we told you all about why Rurouni Kenshin is a legend among the many Shonen Jump titles. Well today, the legend continues! We sat down with Hisashi SASAKI, VP of Global Shonen Jump and original editor of Rurouni Kenshin, to get an inside look at Watsuki Sensei’s work ethic on the original Rurouni Kenshin. We even have a special message from Watsuki Sensei himself, along with new details on Kenshin we know you’ve all been waiting for!

If SASAKI-san gave you a need for Rurouni Kenshin, we got you covered with our Rurouni Kenshin 3-in-1, Vol. 2 value pack available for pre-order now!

You can also relive the timeless fan favorite from the very beginning or play Kenshin catch-up with Rurouni Kenshin 3-in-1, Vol. 1 here!
