The movie is great but deviates from the source material

The movie is genuinely wonderfully made, the acctors ans fight scenes are auperb same as in the other movies from the Rurouni Kenshin series, I loved watching them, got imersed in the story amd recognized a lot of instances from the mamga and anime. In the last movie of tje series I felt that although briloamtly made it deviated very much from the mamga sorce material: I know it is quite hard to compress the entire Jinchu Arc in 2 hours but tne emdomg felt rushed and deviated, ir did not show tje strugle of Kenshin whem he tought Kaoru was dead, in tje movie Aoshi semingly and Misao recieve a bigger role in avengimg him and fightimg one of the six comrades, Sanosuke is beaten by Enishi and does tot fight one of the six comrades, a fight that is beautifully ilustrated in the manga, the final fight although beautifuly crafted seems rushed and Kenshin does not use his signature move to deafen Enishi. All in all it is a movie worth watching.
