Season 08, Episode 10 - "The Soul of Baragaki, Burning with Friends"

Set in Kyoto at the end of the Edo period, the story depicts the intense and passionate lives of the Shinsengumi - the iconic samurai force that defended Kyoto in the final years of Japan's shogunate - through spectacular action and a bold interpretation based on historical facts. The story follows street brawler Toshizo Hijikata, who finds a new kind of family in Isami Kondo and Soji Okita. Hijikata and his comrades in the Shinsengumi forge a bond of loyalty - tested by betrayal, illness, and war - as they fight not only their enemies but their own ideals.

The story begins with the tragedy of Okada Izo, a man who would later be feared as a "manslayer." A kind-hearted young man who simply sought strength, his spirit was broken by the ruthless machinations of his master, Takechi Hanpeita, and he wielded his first blade out of a desire for revenge. From then on, he descended into a soulless assassin, killing people only when ordered.
