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.”
But in the face of such awful truth...
...ولكن في مواجهة حقيقة فظيعة كهذه
Aber ich mag es lieber als die Wahrheit.
Sin embargo, más que la cruel verdad,
Sin embargo, antes que la cruel verdad,
Sauf qu’à cette terrible vérité,
पर ऐसे भयानक सच के सामने…
Tuttavia il qui presente, rispetto a questa verità
Contudo, ao invés da verdade,
Ну и что с того?
Мне эта истина давно приелась.
