But as someone who is a long time Kenshin fan I really enjoyed it.

"Killing is bad" does simplify it, but maybe first timers will appreciate it more if they watch the sequels, assuming the sequels will do well in piecing the story together.
Anyway, after the movie I went to the restroom to empty my bladder. A bunch of girls were in there fixing their make-up and all. One of them commented, "I really don't get my boyfriend..." to which another replied, "Yeah! My boyfriend's joy and excitement is so shallow!" Lol.
I bet these were the same comments their boyfriends made when they were forced to watch Breaking Dawn with them.
It was just amusing.
