The Blue Wolves of Mibu
| https://www.livechart.me/anime/12327 Going by the Livechart description... >This riveting samurai series from the acclaimed creator of Days shares its setting with Rurouni Kenshin My first thought is, maybe they just mean it's the same time period or typte of place as this other popular thing, though that's a weirdly specific and awkward way of putting it. Are these shows/series actually related somehow? Like do the characters exist in the same time/place as each other? Is this a Kenshin spin-off? The MAL description for this show says >It's 1863, the twilight of the shogunate, Compare to Kenshin's manga description https://myanimelist.net/manga/22/Rurouni_Kenshin__Meiji_Kenkaku_Romantan >Now in the 11th year of Meiji, I queried wolframalpha with "11th year of Meiji era in gregorian" and got back "Thursday, January 3, 1878", which would put Kenshin a bit ahead of Ao no Miburo. With the timing difference I could see it having Kenshin before he became a good peace-loving guy. |
| No, they are not related, only the historical period is the same. |

| This anime is birth of Shinsengumi. They are called Miborogumi for a while until they made a name for themselves. |
Reply to t_tobago
the period's generally known as bakumatsu and is parodied in gintama among others
| @t_tobago This. Not everything's related to Kenshin and the time period isn't unique or created by Kenshin. |
