Wishing Fireflies

"He now believes each man may meet one woman in his life that he can never forget. I just wanted to let the glimmer of life from that woman, fragile like a fireflies light, rest on someone else's heart..."

-Ryunoske, Rurouni Kenshin Episode 63

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rurouni Kenshin is my favorite anime of all time ever in existence, and I've been madly in love with Kenshin since I was like 12. When I saw the OVA, Trust and Betrayal, it had a huge impact on how I view Kenshin, and his relationship with Kaoru.

And I really, really dislike that ship.

There's something about Kenshin and Tomoe that just seems so...right, I guess.

I just watched episode 63 last night, and I couldn't get this image out of my head. It makes me really happy that Kenshin still carries Tomoe with him in his heart, not just as a memory on his cheek.

Kenshin Tomoe forever ~
