Chiruran: Nibun no Ichi

On the eve of a new era, Kyoto was in chaos.

Different factions were moving at cross-purposes, and with the clash of different ideals, many were resorting to violence to enforce their views.

To bring back order to the streets of Kyoto, Shinsengumi – the supposed guardians of peace – were formed.

A chosen group of hot blooded youth, on a mission to save Kyoto, and to prove their worth... This is a tale of proud young Samurai mercenaries, who lived and died by the sword, in a turbulent period of political upheaval.

To them, a man is defined by the way he dies.
