According to a certain little bird, it would seem that Battousai our favorite manslayer would be returning to our screens. A new Rurouni Kenshin is currently in production and more information would be provided in future issues of jump square. If you haven't read the manga or watched the anime, i suggest you do so immediately. But below is a short synopsis about the manga.

 "During the violent era known as the Bakumatsu, there was an 
Ishin assassin known only as the Hitokiri Battousai, whose skill and brutality 
became near legendary in the age of Restoration he helped to build. However, as 
the time of fighting drew to a close, he vanished without a trace, only to 
resurface eleven years later as a wandering swordsman, Himura Kenshin. Now 
staying at a kenjutsu dojo maintained by a fiery-tempered woman named Kamiya 
Kaoru, and surrounded by newfound friends like the streetfighter Sagara 
Sanosuke, ex-samurai's son Myoujin Yahiko, and the shrewd doctor Takani Megumi, 
he seeks to carry out his vow to protect the weak without killing in order to 
atone for the lives he's taken. It's not long, though, before this vow is put 
to the test, and the shadows of his past return to haunt him and everyone he 
holds dear."
