Samurai X

Toycom

Samurai X is a historical drama set in the Meiji era of Japan. It is the story of a reformed assassin trying to live a life of peace and to forget his life of violence. Armed with a reverse-edged sword (a katana with the cutting and blunt edge reversed), he wages a silent war to maintain peace and order to a directionless country plagued by opportunists and would-be dictators. Along the way, he meets a teenage dojo master, an orphan son of a samurai, a disillusioned street fighter, a fallen doctor, an obsessive ninja leader, and his greatest rival.
