But one night, the peace is shattered when Kenshin's favorite restaurant is destroyed by cannon fire. Still filled with remorse for his past, when as the fearful Battosai he was responsible for "more deaths than can be counted," he has sworn to protect the innocent. Legendary bakumatsu-assassin-turned-pacifist-wanderer Kenshin Himura (Satoh) is leading a peaceful life in Tokyo with his friends Kaoru (Takei), who runs a swordsmanship school, lay-about Sanosuke (Aoki), and Megumi (Aoi), a physician. The fourth entry in the franchise, "Rurouni Kenshin: The Final" begins twelve years after the Meiji Restoration, as a "new age" settles over Japan. Part historical drama, part action thriller, part romantic comedy and world-class entertainment in every respect, the films are poised to sweep more than the Japanese box office this year. "Rurouni Kenshin: The Final/The Beginning" were shot back-to-back over a period of seven months in 2019, with the same main cast and crew as previous entries, deploying 6,000 extras in 43 locations across Japan. Otomo's blockbuster films have set records for Japanese film sales overseas, with theatrical releases in more than 100 nations, and attracted a fanbase of tens of millions since its debut in 2012.
