I'm being sarcastic when i say Kenshins an Aztec, or a viking.
I knew he wasent a Aztec warrior. I just wanted to know what was an Aztec warrior. But thanks anyway

He was also sent on assasin missions when he was a kid, i dont recall samurais ever doing that.
Kenshin is just a random warrior who carries a sword, he's not a ninja or a samurai.

Kenshin is neither. Samurai means "one who serves" (a lord), which Kenshin does not. A samurai also would not mind killing if it is in the name of his lord; Kenshin vows never to kill no matter what. Also, he just isn't a ninja.

He is just a swordsman who wonders around (ronin) protecting the innocent.

That's not true because there was a samurai named synskoi that wanted to kill him at first.

ok I'll add in my 2 cents to this ok here we go Kenshin is neither as we all know a Samurai or Ninja all he is a warrior or I should a swordsmen who is a wander who use to be a man slayer who used Hiten Mitsurugi-ryu (Heaven Flight Holy Sword Style) battoujutsu (the art of sheathing one's sword before attacking) and mastered his style of battoujutsu which is where he got the title Battousai The Man Slayer, and then of course we know the rest of the story but anyway he is just a normal swordsmen who is very skilled who as a swordsmen, and human being who killed many men, and wanted to repent for what he did, and do what's right but what bugs me is why is he considered samurai...I know some of this is kinda pointless but it explains what type of warrior he is.

There is no true good, or evil even the best of good intentions can cause negative effects to take place.

Kenshee is only an elite swordsman for me.

he is not a ninja for he is not wearing bonets and use shurikens.

he is not a samurai for he doen't serve any shoguns, daimyos or any feudal lords.

Kenshee is only a wandering swordsman. 8) :)

no... kenshin isn't a samurai... carying a samurai sword doesn't mean your a samurai... he's just a trained swordsman...
just like the american film "the last samurai"
it's just plain wrong... tom cruise isn't a samurai... he's also a trained swordsman just like kenshin... so "The last samurai" and "Samurai X" is not the fitting title for them...
