In the days before the Japanese Revolution, Hiko Seiijuro, a wandering master swordsman and hermit, encounters a bandit raid on a slave wagon. Hiko kills the raiding bandits in hopes of saving as many lives as possible, but only manages to spare one life from the massacre. Hiko leaves the child, advising him to go to the nearby village and have them take care of him. A few days later, as Hiko comes back to check upon the child he saved, he is shocked to see the child had created graves, both for the slaves he befriended and the bandits who killed them. Seeing potential in the young one, Hiko takes the child under his wing, names him Kenshin, meaning "heart of sword," and teaches him about the art of swordsmanship under the Hiten Mitsuruugi Ryu.

Struggling in a constant challenge with his ideal beliefs reflecting against the harshness of reality, Tsuiokuhen tells the melancholic and dark story of Himura Kenshin as one of the most feared assassins of the Japanese Revolution: the Hitokiri Battousai.

  • the first person Kenshin ever love

  • @loner1878 Good answer.

  • @PaulThePessimist 1. I dont have a sister. 2. Sacrificing yourself, thats called true love, my friend. 3. Like I said in my previous comment, OF HER OWN FREE WILL!

  • @BattosaiKen24 Would you not seek revenge if your favorite sister gave her life for a guy you hated instead of living with you in peace? XD

  • ****I wondered why it sounded so familiar..I own the movie XD

    Track is: Samurai X The Movie Soundtrack: A Parting Eternal

    for anyone else wanting to know.

  • What is the audio track from that you used for this video? It sounds soo familiar and I can't place it! Amazing work! Thank you for sharing this with us here!

  • @BattosaiKen24

    Enishi isn't exactly rational. He hated Kenshin even before he killed Tomoe, simply because Tomoe wanted to stay with him.

  • THANK YOU! IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A VIDEO OF WHEN HE KILLED TOMOE! :DDD xD I always wondered something... Enishi wans revenge on Kenshin for killing Tomoe when he ACCIDENTALLY killed her. and you see Enishi right there, so why does he want to kill Kenshin for it? Tomoe got in the way of her own will. She sacrificed her life so that Kenshin could "save far more lives than he has taken" in her words. WHY THE FUCK DOES ENISHI WANT REVENGE? DX

  • @ArcticZeroPro You know, in the manga, it was an accident as she released her dagger after being injured, but yeah, what you said makes sense.

  • @allana221 You know how Kenshin got his ever-bleeding wound from Tomoe's fiancee? Well, she wanted it to stop bleeding; basically, cancel out the curse that her fiancee put on Kenshin, so she makes a cut across the wound. If you pay close attention, after she makes the cut, that wound never bled again.
