After 6 months of grueling film production, the principal photography for the upcoming two
new live-action Rurouni Kenshin movie sequels set for 2014 finally ended last December 27 according to Comic Natalie. Filming started last July 2013 from Tokyo, Kyoto, and the
prefectures of Ibaraki, Yamagata, Kumamoto, Shiga, Hyōgo, Nagano,
Tochigi, Chiba, and Kanagawa. The production featured 5,000 extras.

The latest Rurouni movies will be based on Kyoto arc of Nobuhiro Watsuki's
original manga, specifically, the Great Kyoto Fire and Legend's End
storylines. The two-part movies will be entitled Rurouni Kenshin: The Great Kyoto Fire Arc and Rurouni Kenshin: The End of a Legend Arc
or "Rurouni Kenshin: Kyoto Taika-hen” and “Rurouni Kenshin: Densetsu no
