S01E01 Kenshin - Himura Battosai

11th year of the Meiji Era in downtown Tokyo. Kaoru Kamiya, the acting master of the "Kamiya Kasshin-ryu" style, was chasing after the "Hitokiri Battosai," who was claiming to be a user of her sword style. One night, Kaoru meets a man carrying a sword. She immediately questions the man, but he seems to have absolutely no will to fight. "Is this the rumored Hitokiri Battosai?" As Kaoru dubiously looks on, the man introduces himself as Kenshin Himura, a "Rurouni."
