The June issue of Shueisha's Jump Square magazine is announcing on Thursday that production on a new Rurouni Kenshin anime project has been green-lit. More information will be provided in future issues of Jump Square.
The magazine also noted that the Blu-ray Disc versions of the two Rurouni Kenshin original video anime (OVA) projects and the Rurouni Kenshin: Ishin Shishi no Chinkonka [Requiem] film will ship between August 24 and October 26. A compilation CD will ship on July 27. Rurouni Kenshin, Meiji Kenkaku Romantan Saisen, a new game for the Sony PSP system, already shipped last month.
Nobuhiro Watsuki's original 1994-1999 samurai manga in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump inspired a television anime series that is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year. Viz Media published the manga in North America, and Media Blasters' AnimeWorks label released the television anime. ADV Films released the two OVA projects and the film under the licenser's prescribed title Samurai X.
Since he ended the Rurouni Kenshin manga, Watsuki drew Gun Blaze West and Buso Renkin. His current title, Embalming - The Another Tale of Frankenstein, has been running in Jump Square since the magazine's inaugural issue in 2007.

The 2011 PSP game might give us an idea

As cool as this is, we have no real info on it at the moment, and I'm feeling very skeptical.
The first run through of the series, along with the OVAs, were all fine and never deviated from the original story. Whats left to do?
I don't think a remake is necessary at all.

Are you kidding? The anime after the Shishio arc was pure filler.

Speaking of Shishio, I can't help but remember being up at like 11:30 (or whenever Rurouni Kenshin was on) on those Cartoon Network Saturday Night things. :(
i miss those.

Haven't watched the first anime, hopefully this will be like the same but with improved animations.
