Rurouni Kenshin Season 2 Episode 3 recap

Rurouni Kenshin Season 2 Episode 3, titled The Abandoned Village, started as Kenshin remains silent about the Oniwaban massacre, which infuriates Misao. Despite this, Kenshin recognizes her determination to find Aoshi and allows her to accompany him to Kyoto.

During their journey, Kenshin encounters a dying man and an unconscious boy. The man asks Kenshin to fulfill his final wish—saving his village, Shingetsu, from the control of Shishio’s forces. After the man’s death, the boy, Eiji, reveals that the Meiji Government has neglected the village.

This left it vulnerable to Shishio’s corrupt enforcer, Keikaku. Upon arriving in Shingetsu, Kenshin is met with a grim sight—two bodies hanging, identified by Eiji as his parents. As Senkaku’s men confront Kenshin, a battle ensues in Rurouni Kenshin Season 2 Episode 3.

During the chaos, Saito arrives just in time to protect Misao from another assassin's attack, shifting the momentum of the confrontation and providing critical aid to Kenshin and his companions.
