Rurouni Kenshin Season 2 Episode 1 recap

In the opening scene of Rurouni Kenshin Season 2 Episode 1, titled ‘To Kyoto,’ we find ourselves transported back in time with a flashback showing Kenshin bidding adieu to Kaoru and encountering Hajime Saito. Instead of helping him, as suggested, Kenshin politely refuses Saito’s offer of assistance.

Next, the story shifts focus to Sanosuke, who shows clear signs of distress due to Kenshin leaving. Eager to track him down, Sanosuke seeks out his buddy Tsunan Tsukioka for necessary equipment. Alongside him goes Yahiko.

Yet, Saito trails Yahiko, cautioning them that staying in Kyoto during Season 2 Episode 1 of Rurouni Kenshin could put Kenshin at risk, since he’d have to defend them against powerful adversaries due to their presence.

This results in a short skirmish between Saito and Sanosuke, concluding without severe harm, but Sanosuke manages to win Saito’s esteem. Simultaneously, Megumi Takani pays a visit to Kaoru at the Kamiya dojo, applying firm encouragement to help Kaoru emerge from their depressive phase.

Inspired by Kaoru’s newfound determination, Yahiko and Sanosuke successfully convince her to accompany them on their journey to Kyoto, where they aim to reconnect with Kenshin. The first episode of Rurouni Kenshin Season 2 ends with a glimpse of Kenshin moving towards Kyoto.
