Rurouni Kenshin tells the story of a man slayer, Kenshin Himura, who played a major role in defeating Tokugawa Shogunate of feudal Japan. He carries his reverse blade sword with a promise not to slay anymore, and embarks on a quest to repent for his sins by helping the innocent.

He lodges in Kamia Kashin dojo where he becomes an acquaintance of Kaorou, the assistant instructor of the dojo. After being saved by Kenshin from mafia, a stubborn young boy, Yahiko Myojin joins the dojo as a student.
