I keep finding shrines to the women of RuroKen on the Web. What's up with this? Admittedly, I'm a teenaged girl, and I'm biased when discussing this sort of thing, but still. The men (and boys) of RuroKen are intelligent, witty, fun, charming, sexy, and good to have around when the going gets tough. And this is the supporting cast (defined by: anyone NOT Kenshin)! In no particular order . . .

Saitou Hajime
Oh my! What can I say? Calm, cool, and collected. *thinking* maybe I should just give up on the rest of the cast and simply make a Saitou Shrine. We'll see. Anyway, he's a classic bad guy, and yet we're shown that he's a decent guy after all, and he's married!

Sagura Sanosuke
This poor guy couldn't have had much of a childhood, and then to see his father-figure betrayed and destroyed by the new government. Ouch. Kenshin is able to make him let go of his hate, and Sano becomes a loyal friend. I guess this is why I like Sano, for all his blustering and that "bad" kanji on his back, he's a decent guy. "Can't let a foxy doctor walk alone at night."

And the Hair!

Myoujin Yahiko
"Don't call me CHAN!!!" He's so determined to be strong, and to be able to protect those he loves, just like Kenshin. He puts up a facade of bravado for the rest of the world, but as we can see by his relationship with Tsubame (I think that's her name). He's a sweetheart.

Shinomori Aoshi
He's dark, strong, and moody. He sits there and broods as the world passes him by. In other words, he's practically begging for some worthy female to fall in love with him, and save him from himself. Enter Misao! Admittedly, he's pretty cruel sometimes, but we at TKP have hope that our unworty hero may be redeemed by love. *sentimental sniff*
