Hi. ;-] Um..Sorry to bother all of you with my question, but it would mean so much if someone could help me. I learned of the anime "Rorouni Kenshin" through Cartoon Network ---- the English/dubbed North American version. I know alot of people prefer subtitles but I really became attached to the English version. . . I think the voice actress/actors are. . .ideal. Sadly, I missed episode 31 yesterday {June 11 2003} when it aired on Cartoon Network because I had to go to my high school graduation ceremony. I had no idea it was, [note: the following sentence is a spoiler so skip it if you want] when Kenshin leaves Kaoru to go to Kyoto, the episode I have been desiring to see.

It really upset me to find that out; I had no one to tape it for me. Here is my question ---- if anyone knows anyplace online that lets you download English episodes from cartoon network ---- meaning, episode 31, I would eternally be thankful and in your debt. And yes, it will be deleted in 24 hours because I know it's wrong to keep files on the computer -- I just want to see it one time only. If not, does annyone know if you can purchase the North American episodes at any store online yet or if they will ever be available? I'm sorry for my ignorance about this. It ruined my day to realize that was the episode I missed. . . and yes, I do know that the Japanese episode is out there, but I would miss the English voices too much. If no one can help me, does anybody know the date in which the episode will re-air? Not for awhile, I know..

thank you to those who at least read this. it's not a frequently asked question so I hope this isn't spam --- if you want, you can change this question into a general question of "are the North American episodes of Rorouni Kenshin available for purchase/download". In any case, If you can help me and want something in return I can try to help! ;-] Thank-you again, take care everybody, -Kristin-

Try Kazaa. Search for Rorouni Kenshin, and check to see that the language is in English. That might be hard because most of the episode will be Japanese ones. Well, good luck.

I don't know where to download it but if you are willing to put out 30 dollars you can buy it. Just go to www.amazon.com and search for rurouni kenshin: shadow of the wolf. That dvd has episodes 28-31 unedited in english (dub) with the option of japanese with english subtitles. Plus its unedited! Cartoon network ruins some of the most crucial scenes, take the battle in episode 30 it was butchered quite a bit.

I just bought the whole series, unedited, and dubbed, on vcd, off ebay for 50 bucks. If you're willing to put out that much money than it's well worth it. Since VCD'll always play on your computer no matter what, they're pretty good, and if you rally lke the series it's a good buy. If you just want that singular episode, try Kazaa or google search.
