The ulta kawaii and lovable little hero of the story~ who just happens to have a darker killer persona hidden somewhere inside that clueless exterior!

Basically he's cute and funny and adorable but I still find Battousai much more appealing. O_o It's weird, but he tends to look a lot more masculine as Battusai than just as Kenshin. (which is nice way of saying kenshin looks sissified... this one's for you, angelus!) The teawhisk hairstyle's soooo cool... Incidentally, cool as he is, Battusai DOES go into chibi mode occasionally! You'd have to look in the Rememberance arc of the manga, though. It's not in the anime. Funny~ *busts a gut laughing*

If you've watched the RK Movie you'll notice that Keshin reverted to Battousai mode for a little while when fighting, even though the evidently knew the Hiten succession technique. That is absolutely WRONG! (And it was drawn so badly too -- I hate the movie.) The whole point of Hiko teaching Kenshin the succession technique was so that he WON'T revert back to Battousai! And besides, if he didn't need Battousai's killer instincts to fight Shishio he certainly won't need them to defeat some two-bit Meiji villian! Sheesh, how I hate the movie.
