This is already the three brushstrokes of Rurouni Kenshin's memory, and it has been more than ten years since the first time I watched it.
Kenshin grew up in turbulent times, he buried the people who protected him and killed him, he believed that after death, nothing more than the dead. But what about when you're alive?
Kenshin learns swordsmanship and is confident that he has the power to change the status quo of society. The way to change is to kill those who obstruct the revolution. If the revolution can succeed, if the country is prosperous and the people are safe, the society will be very different from the era when Kenshin grew up.
Even if you hurt someone you love.
Even if they were framed.
Even the new society may not be perfect.
If you still stick to your original beliefs, you can stick to the job of assassination, a job that you will hate.

What I don't agree with is. Not only do people have the right to be buried after death, but they also have the right to live. No one has the right to "act for heaven" and deprive others of the right to live. I do not agree, the so-called curse.
Nor do I agree that the revolution will create a whole new social environment. There are many factors that influence the formation of social systems. Innovation should be a matter of course (quantitative change to qualitative change) with social development.
