January, 1868. The shoguns forces are defeated by a samurai uprising under a lone swordsman known as Battosai the Killer, signalling the birth of a new era. Once legendary for his killing prowess, Battosai becomes a wanderer under the name of Kenshin Himura and vows never to kill again. But things are not so simple: faced with those who wish to return Japan to times of darkness, Kenshin is forced to grapple with what renouncing violence could mean. (Madman Entertainment)
