I agree with you whole-heartedly. Kenshin never really showed his actual feelings for Kaoru in the canon. That seriously bugged me. I think that's why I latched onto doujinshi, at long last I finally got to see the Kenshin/Kaoru sweetness they deserved. Unless of course you count the fact that Kenji all of a sudden popped into the picture, gotta do something for him to all of a sudden materialize but that's as close as it got. Well and a little hand holding when they were leaving Tomoe's gravesite.
And then there's Enishi, yes he was, if anything, very devoted. Of course while I was reading the Jinchuu arc I was really hoping to see Kaoru mend Enishi like she did Kenshin but alas Watsuki didn't feel my hopeful vibes. Of course that could be because the story was already long written. But then again I guess she did in a way by giving him Tomoe's diary.
I guess I can see her with either one really although many would shoot me for even thinking of Kaoru and Enishi as a pair.
(Although Tomoe probably never fed him anything resembling the results of the Kamiya Kitchen of Pain. Oog.)
I loved that scene in the manga.. think they might have to hire a cook as I seriously doubt Enishi learned the culinary arts while wandering the streets of Shanghai. ^_^
