Seeking a noble end, poverty-stricken Samurai Hanshiro requests to commit ritual suicide at the House of a Feudal Lord. But after being told the tragic story of another Samurai’s agonizing suicide, that of Hanshiro’s close friend Motome, Hanshiro sets out on a path of vengeance.
A violent path that will lead to a tense and bloody showdown with those responsible for his friend's brutal death.
