11th year of the Meiji Era in downtown Tokyo. Kaoru Kamiya, the acting master of the “Kamiya Kasshin-ryu” style, was chasing after the “Hitokiri Battosai,” who was claiming to be a user of her sword style. One night, Kaoru meets a man carrying a sword. She immediately questions the man, but he seems to have absolutely no will to fight. “Is this the rumored Hitokiri Battosai?” As Kaoru dubiously looks on, the man introduces himself as Kenshin Himura, a “Rurouni.”
As a rurouni, I don't know
when I will wander to the next place.
وبصفتي روروني، لا أعرف متى
.سأرتحل لوجهتي التّالية
Als Vagabund weiß ich nicht,
wann und wohin es mich wieder verschlägt,
Comme tout vagabond, je ne sais pas
quand je reprendrai la route.
एक रुरौनि के रूप में, मुझे नहीं पता
कि मैं कब अगली जगह जाऊँगा।
Como sou andarilho,
não sei para onde vou depois.
Я бродяга и не знаю,
куда заведёт меня дорога…
