So New Kyoto movies cover canon ground just like the OVAs. Should I watch that after the OVAs?

New Kyoto is not canon.  Well sorta its a retelling with some elements different. Many think its a poor retelling since they had to rush the kyoto arc into 2 movies.  I only suggested it because the fights are great, and shows you a more realistic version of kenshin's fights.

Example is Usui never fights Saitou and the final battle is on the ship than in the cave.

<p>I have watched the anime in full. I understand that canon stops at ep 62. What are the other animated contents that cover the canon story <strong>to the fullest</strong>?</p>

<p>Referring Wikipedia, there were two OVAs. Rurouni Kenshin: Trust &amp; Betrayal seems canon without controversy. Rurouni Kenshin: Reflection was declared non-canon by the author, but I guess it was sourced from canon.</p>

<p>So my best guess is, I must watch Trust &amp; Betrayal and then Reflection to get the canon story. Is my guess correct or did I miss something?</p>

<hr>

<p>What parts of the manga have been not-animated? Are there upcoming projects that cover the canon story?</p>

`Are there upcoming projects that cover the canon story?` Usually, you can check such news on ANN or other anime news site. We don't answer such questions, since we are always behind the news.
