Summary:
Welcome to the Meiji era. Japan is a land experiencing times of troubled peace and renewal after a long and bloody civil war. Lurking in the shadows are many survivors of the revolution awaiting their chance for vengeance. Only Kenshin, the former government assassin can keep the peace. He gives up the life of "Battousai the man slayer" and sets off as a lone wanderer to start life over. Can he keep faithful to new ideals or will his violent instincts take control again?
