      i think it is implied he did in kenshins vision where he is depressed. Kenshin had no reason to know that he was gonna conquer hell yet he sees him in this vision sitting on a throne so i think its canon he succeeded.

      Shishio died due to overexerting his burnt body. He had to fight a lot of people too. Kenshin uses the reverse-blade sword which seems to have little effect on Shishio. All blunt attacks seem to do barely anything, including the ultimate technique of Kenshin. Sure that hurt, but Sanosuke’s fist and other Kenshin Sword Strikes did not really do anything. I think if Kenshin is pissed off and using a killing sword he might be able to win on his own.

    Love seeing Shishio get some attention! He's the most underrated anime villain ever. Seems Rurouni Kenshin as a whole is just lost in a sea of shonen series these days, seeing you bring some pride to it so articularely made me smile!
    If I could offer some advice--it was a little hard to understand you at a few points in this video. Slow down a little, and really focus on annunciating. Take it from a graduate of theatre, you're not doing your job unless your microphone is covered in spit. Keep up the great work!

      73windman I appreciate the criticism, I’ll work on that, definitely something I noticed when putting the video together and I’m just generally poor at speaking. I love that you appreciate what I’m doing, I saw that not many people try to understand Shishio so this was my shot at it. And if I ever work on a future project, I’ll take your criticisms to heart and REALLY focus on my delivery, maybe on a character like Sojiro that would work really well. If you want any clarifications on my points feel free to ask.

    • @michaelbandada9887

      Shishio’s portrayal in the anime and the live action films is truly haunting. It’s like a sinister psychopath keeping himself cool while unleashing unhinged brutality against his foes at the same time
      Ikeda Masanori, Steve Blum and Fujiwara Tatsuya manage to portray Shishio very well

    And the great irony of the destiny is that Shishio was defeated by Kenshin in life, but posthumously beated him when Japan, at the end of the 19th century, adopted Shishio's ideology and philosophy as State Policy and started an expanionist policy, waging wars against China and Russia and even participating in the First World War. In other words, he got posthumously what he don't got in life.

    I mean Shishio is kind of right that mankind is inherently wicked. But that has more to do with humanity having a sin nature, and has no chance of overcoming it without Christ. That said, he’s a pretty good villain, and I look forward to seeing him in the reboot.

    Because Kenshin (a guy who is both physically and morally stronger) survives while Shishio (a man whose weakness made him desperate to show how strong he is which led to his already weak body burning itself out) died in flames.

    What i liked about him most was that Shishio just needed to see a move once to reduce its effectiveness and counter it.
    He's also bloody intelligent and possessed an iron will sticking by his philosophy of 'if you're strong you live and if you're weak you die' to the bitter end.

    Shishio killed Yumi just like how Kenshin killed Tomoe.
    The best part is that Shishio didn’t even know or care about Tomoe. It’s just who he is.
    I have a soft spot for the arch nemesis who has zero personal connection to the hero but managed to get under the hero’s skin the most because he represents the worst version that the hero could have been and does things against everything the hero stands for.
    One could also say Shishio and Battousai represent Japan before the end of world war 2, militaristic, nationalistic and evil while Kenshin represents Japan post world war 2, knowing himself that he’s capable of evil and is trying his hardest to be a pacifist in order to atone for past sins.

      SeLiXioOnZ SeLiXioOnZ Yeah but Kenshin gave Shishio many blows that probably would have been lethal if he wasn’t using the reverse edge of his sword. But he wouldn’t have the secret Hiten Mitsurugi technique so he might still be at a disadvantage. It’s a weird situation because post war Kenshin is probably stronger than Battousi but he doesn’t have the same killer edge.
