About Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Kenkaku Romantan: Tsuioku-hen

While a raid of bandits slay a group of travelers, a young boy named Shinta is saved from death by a passing swordsman. The swordsman, known as Hiko Seijūrō, is a master of the Hiten Mitsurugi, the strongest of all sword forms. After seeing the boy bury the bodies of not only the travelers but also the bandits, Hiko is impressed and takes Shinta as an apprentice, renaming him "Himura Kenshin", a name which he felt was more appropriate for a swordsman.

These mini-series are a prequel to original anime series. This was originally released first as an OVA series.
