A remake of the Kyoto arc with better animation, some good music tracks and some really bad changes to the plot. The studio have wasted all their efforts on this one.
why?
The Kyoto arc of the main series was good. So they could have done better with this one with some good plot changes. But had to ruin that with some bad changes.

The animation is fine. But some things are off about the character design ...

Rurouni Kenshin New Kyoto Arc is quite disappointing and not something I can recommend.
Cramming a 30 episode arc into 90 minutes isn’t the best idea and did not work out. They drastically rewrote key elements and set pieces, as well as omitting characters and taking severe creative liberty to condense it for time. The OVA took a darker turn which ended up contradicting many of the characters and forgoing their development. The most egregious example of which is the main protagonist himself, Kenshin. He is way more brutal in this appearance, for some reason. Nearly all the fights are inferior compared to the original ...
