Samurai X's Story
Rurouni Kenshin aka Samurai X takes place in the 1860's in
Japan(of course). This is the story of a guy who looked
like a girl but was actually a great swordsman (arguably
the best in Japan) known as Hitokiri Battousai. He fought
for the Ishinshishi and killed a lot of people during the
Bakumatsu no Doran, helping to start a new era, Meiji. In
order to atone for all the people he had killed he
abandoned the killer's sword and became a "korosazu no
rurouni," a wanderer sworn never to kill again. He traveled
around Japan with no other aim than to protect the innocent
and helpless with his sakabatou (reverse blade), a katana
with the blunt and sharp edges reversed. Pretty soon
Kenshin Himura meets up with Kaoru Kamiya, Sanosuke Sagara,
and Yahiko Myojin who together form a group/family.
This group goes around defeating evil.
