Ha ha, RK rules! XD Now you have to see the OAV series and the movie, and your inauguration will be complete. :3

As for communities, I don't know of any active ones. There are a couple of decent RK icon coms, but I don't remember what they were called, sorry!

A Kenshin icon!! <3

Ahh I really really wanna see the OVAs now and the movie too, but I'm stuck with a slow connection T___T *wails* Are the OVAs as good as everyone says though? After the manga high, I really don't want to be disappointed hehe ^^;;

The OAVs are much darker than the series by far. Since the whole thing takes place during the Bakamatsu with Kenshin still the Battousai, it completely lacks the periods of humor and comic relief provided by the series. There is no humor, and it's very intense (I guarantee you will cry more than once, possibly continuously). So don't expect the same old light-hearted Kenshin series, but expect it to be just as good.

The movie is usual Kenshin, though. ^^ Also, there's a brief manga about Yahiko when he's grown if you haven't read it yet.

I should rephrase that...the whole thing doesn't take place during the Bakamatsu, some of it takes place long after the end of the series. It's just as intense and depressing. ^^;

Ahh yeah that OVA about Kenshin's past is in the manga, so I kinda know what's in there, and I hope the presentation and art will be as beautiful as it was in the manga ^___^ The one about their future, I've heard about what happens there and that it doesn't really agree with the manga's ending ==;;

Ooh I've downloaded that chapter too from Shaza's site ^__^
