    This felt like a very similar / the same as the original anime, but more serious I guess? IDK, I really liked the original, but it’s been 20 years since I saw it, so maybe my memory is just wrong. I saw little flashes of the Samurai X OVA in the prologue and the ending.

    I’m just not sure I want to re-watch something that I basically know what’s going to happen.

      I guess it depends on what you want to experience. There are merits to rewatching a series you really enjoyed knowing the outcome. You may pick up on themes/ideas you didn’t notice the first time. There is the chance that altough the major plot points will be the same, how we get there may be different due to it being a more faithful adaptation.
