I suppose it's unfair. But, she could chose to try to help them fight, instead of allowing them to simply defend her. We can't put all the blame on her, though, heck, it could be the fault of her various protectors. They assume she's too weak to defend herself, almost immediatly. Or, like Kenshin, they can be possessive, that's how I choose to think of it, since he should be aware she's quite strong herself. Demonstrations being when she whacks him, about once per episode.

Yami no Hitokiri Kaoru is strong against your run-of-the-mill thugs and yakuzas (like when she took out those Hishi Manji Gurentai guys in chapter two), but up against guys like Udo Jinei and Yukishiro Enishi, guys who give Kenshin himself a hard time, there's little she can do. It's not about strong or weak; it's about different levels of strength. Kaoru is strong on her own level, but it's far below Kenshin's, Saitou's, Aoshi's, etc.
You're right, I can't believe I left out a few details in my own post, yours was stated better than mine. ^ ^" I'd hate to think what would've happened if she had been facing someone other than Kamatari, even then she had a hard time.

I'll admit she's strong on a certain level, but there have been quite a few times where she could have done SOMETHING to save herself, and she didn't-
With Jineh, after he grabbed her and started floating down river- while he had her, she didn't move, just screamed kenshin's name. I'm sorry, but if some gaunt faced freak had a hold of someone who was 'strong' , they would have tried anything. everything they could to get away.
Stomp on his feet! Bite him, scratch, twist, turn, jerk, something girl, I mean come on! What kind of head of Kamiya Kasshin dojo is she?
Of course, I'm not saying she can't fight- it's just when KENSHIN is around that she gets all weak and defenseless. And helpless. And so many other words with a less at the end. All I have to say is, if her LIFE depends on some other guy protecting her at every turn, save for the one time she 'fought' Kamatari ( with HELP from the Kunoichi Misao) then Watsuki is right to portray her as weak. Because that's what she is.
