Packed with action, romance and historical intrigue, Rurouni Kenshin is one of the most beloved and popular manga series worldwide. Set against the backdrop of the Meiji Restoration, it tells the saga of Himura Kenshin, once an assassin of ferocious power, now a humble rurouni, a wandering swordsman fighting to protect the honor of those in need.

A Collection of Volumes 10 - 12!

Kenshin journeys to the home of Arai Shakke, the legendary swordsmith who forged his sakabate, in the hope of procuring a replacement for the blade that was shattered in a fight with Seta Sejire. Instead of Shakke, though, Kenshin finds his son Seike, who has given up making instruments of death. But when word gets around that before he passed away Shakke forged a final blade, one of Shishio's warriors also decides to pay a visit, and he doesn't plan on leaving empty-handed. With the safety of Seike's family at risk, Kenshin springs into action, even if it means fighting without a weapon at his side!

Kenshin realizes that if he is to defeat Shishio the time has come to complete his training in Hiten Mitsurugi-rye. But first he will have to convince his incredibly stubborn master, Hiko Seijere, that he is indeed worthy of Hiten Mitsurugi's greatest secrets and techniques. Then, with all of his Juppongatana "Ten Swords" fighters now in Kyoto, Shishio kicks into high gear with his scheme to radically alter the face of Meiji Era Japan. Can Kenshin, Saite and Misao marshal their resources in time to prevent Shishio from burning Kyoto to the ground?!
