The Samurai

Kenji and Shintaro were once celebrated as the top Samurai of their castle town, destined to inherit the titles of Sensei and master warrior. However, a devastating attack shattered their dreams. After bravely defending their lord, Kenji’s injury forced him into retirement and a spiral into alcohol, earning him the derisive title "the quitter." Yet, his devoted wife, Rin, believed in his potential and stood by him. Following Sensei Yamamoto's passing, a will stipulates that the next Sensei will be decided in a duel between the former friends, prompting Rin to train Kenji for a chance at redemption against Shintaro.
