Action, romance and historical intrigue help make Nobuhiro Watsuki's Rurouni Kenshin, the tale of a wandering swordsman set against the backdrop of the Meiji Restoration, one of the most popular manga titles of all time! With his sakabato shattered, Kenshin seeks the only swordsmith who can forge him a new blade. Instead, he finds one of Shishio's elite assassins waiting to take his head! Not even Kenshin can win this battle unarmed. What's more, his training remains incomplete. With no other option, Kenshin must return to the one person he never wanted to ask for help: his master.
