Information

Description

In “Rurouni Kenshin: New Kyoto Arc”, Kenshin Himura must face an opponent who is practically a glimpse into the past. After Kenshin stopped carrying out contract killings as “Battousai”, he moved away to fight with an inverted sword from now on. His place was taken by the swordsman Makoto Shishio, but as he slowly became too dangerous for his employers, they lured him into a potentially deadly ambush. The result: Makoto survived but with severe burns. Now he lives bandaged like a mummy, though he has lost none of his fighting skills and is gathering a like-minded entourage to shape the country in his image – an image that grants only the strongest a right to exist.

In search of his effective successor, Kenshin meets the young ninja fighter Misao, who, in turn, wants to find her crush. Together, they find the renegade Makoto, but in the first fight, Kenshin’s blade breaks. While Makoto continues to cause terror and destruction, Kenshin must find a blacksmith to obtain a new blade. However, his former blacksmith is no longer alive, and his son refuses to produce a tool for killing again. Will Kenshin manage to obtain a new sword and defeat his opponent before he brings the country to ruin altogether?
In »Rurouni Kenshin: New Kyoto Arc« muss sich Kenshin Himura einem Gegner stellen, der praktisch ein Blick in die Vergangenheit ist. Nachdem Kenshin aufgehört hatte, als »Battousai« Auftragsmorde auszuführen, zog er von dannen, um fortan mit umgekehrtem Schwert zu kämpfen. Seinen Platz nahm der Schwertkämpfer Makoto Shishio ein, doch da der seinen Auftraggebern langsam zu gefährlich wurde, lockten ihn diese in einen potenziell tödlichen Hinterhalt. Das Ergebnis: Makoto überlebte, jedoch mit schwersten Verbrennungen. Nun lebt er bandagiert wie eine Mumie, hat aber nichts von seiner Kampfkunst eingebüßt und versammelt ein gleichgesinntes Gefolge, um das Land nach seinem Vorbild zu gestalten – einem Vorbild, das nur den Stärksten ein Recht auf Existenz gewährt.

Auf der Suche nach seinem effektiven Nachfolger trifft Kenshin auf die junge Ninjakämpferin Misao, die ihrerseits ihren Schwarm finden will. Gemeinsam finden sie den abtrünnigen Makoto, doch im ersten Kampf zerbricht Kenshins Klinge. Während Makoto weiterhin für Schrecken und Zerstörung sorgt, muss Kenshin einen Schmied finden, um eine neue Klinge zu erhalten. Doch sein einstiger Schmied lebt nicht mehr und dessen Sohn weigert sich, je wieder ein Werkzeug zum Töten zu produzieren. Wird Kenshin es schaffen, ein neues Schwert zu erhalten und seinen Gegner zu bezwingen, bevor dieser das Land gänzlich in den Ruin treibt?

Quotes

  • Kenshin HIMURA

    Perhaps the distant part of the sky always seems clearest, so that we will always strive to reach it.

  • Kenshin HIMURA

    I will bear your pain for you now, and find a path of repentance.

  • Kenshin HIMURA

    A sword is a weapon. Whatever pretty names you give it, swordsmanship is a way to kill. She speaks as one who has never bloodied her hands. Kaoru-dono mantains a sweet, naïve lie. But in the face of such awful truth the naïve lie she tells is so much better. If this one had a wish it would only be that her lie would become the truth of this world.

  • Kenshin HIMURA

    You believe that the strong exist to cull the weak. To use them as food. But you are mistaken . . . The strong exist, not to feed off of the weak, but to protect them!

  • Kenshin HIMURA

    The scar of my past will determine my future!
