Rurouni Kenshin Part II: Kyoto Inferno
“Fate Hangs On His Sword.”
Kenshin has settled into his new life with Kaoru and his other friends when he is approached with a request from the Meiji government. Makoto Shishio, a former assassin like Kenshin, was betrayed, set on fire and left for dead. He survived, and is now in Kyoto, plotting with his gathered warriors to overthrow the new government. Against Kaoru's wishes, Kenshin reluctantly agrees to go to Kyoto and help keep his country from falling back into civil war.
This is an epic and thrilling samurai spectacle, brimming with intense, honor-bound combat and dramatic stakes. Its propulsive pacing and stylized action create a visceral experience, exploring themes of duty and justice. Perfect for an action movie night with friends.
