OVA Requiem for the Ishin Patriots
Himura Kenshin and his friends decide to take a vacation in Yokohama. During their sightseeing, Kenshin encounters a chivalrous samurai named Shigure Takimi who puts down a disturbance in town. Back at the ranch, the two avail to their colleagues how noble and kind the other is. Kenshin secretly has his suspicions, however, and rightfully so. Shigure is amassing an army to lead a new revolution against the corrupt Meiji government. He is not motivated by blind ambition, but instead by vengeance for a fallen comrade. It’s up to Kenshin to prevent another war and more bloodshed.
