In the 11th year of Meiji, on the day marked in the Western calendar as May 14th, time once again began to flow. The shocking mid-day murder of Department of Internal Affairs Chief Tkubo a fait accompli, Kenshin leaves for Kyoto, scene of chaos and bloodshed-against the wishes of nearly everyone who knows him as the gentle "rurouni." Awaiting him there is Shishio Makoto, the hitokiri who replaced the cold-eyed assassin Himura Batttsai once he forswore further killing and took up the reversed-blade sakabatt. But does Kenshin go to Kyoto for a duel...or for a death-match?!
Also a hit anime series, Rurouni Kenshin is beloved by fans around the world for its mix of historical detail, spectacular battles and, of course, romantic comedy. The "Meiji Swordsman Romantic Story" continues in this new edition from VIZ.
