Yeah, I pretty much fell in love with Saitou when he did this:

My favorite Saitou moment is when Kenshin and the ninja girl whose name escapes me come across an orphaned boy when they first encounter Shishio, and Saitou offandedly mentions he'll send the boy to be looked after by his wife. Which causes them to freak out and imagine he must be married to a Buddha considering what he's like.

Man, this makes me nostalgic as hell for the golden age of Toonami.

Misao, and yes, he has some fun moments.

I left the States before Toonami got bad. I did not take the news of its loss well.

Oh, how I adore Saitoh Hajime. He's the only reason I started watching Kenshin. I hope the guy playing him in the live action movie is good.

I also cant wait for the new OVA

[ar_feiniel]

I hope so too. I almost died when I found out he was in it.

At the very least the actor looks hot, so that's a plus. (*is a huge Saitou fangirl*)

I like how matter-of-fact Saito's expression is when he's decapitating the Omega Red homage; dude's got a heck of a swing on him.

A question, which I Am sure will be answered "its in the rules"

[benuben]

How exactly is it with manga here? Does the limit counts for episodes, or volumes, in which these stories are published here?

Re: A question, which I Am sure will be answered "its in the rules"

Since manga volumes tend to be told in chapters just like American graphic novels, there are at most 18-40 pages per chapter, so the 1/3 rule still applies per chapter.

So if you only post 1/3 of each chapter you want to post you should be fine.

Any chapters with his wife? Like to see what the "wolf" chose to be his mate for life...

[ar_feiniel]

Pretty sure she never made an appearance, but someone on here will probably correct me if I'm wrong.

I always loved characters like Hajime Saitou from Rurouni Kenshin since they weren't entirely villainous characters. In Saitou's case he's more of an antihero who continues to fight for what he believes in even when he's at odds with everyone else.
