Mugen no Jyuunin
September 2002*
(note: August there was no episode, as Hiroaki Samura took the month off for Rest and Research)
Background
This month we take three jumps to show how the story is progressing. We look back to Manji, return to an old friend, and finally catch up with the latest recruits to Itto-ryu.
"Meanwhile, back on the ranch..."
Kagimura is just sitting around, being all samurai-ish, when his assistant calls him out to meet a guest.
Hagaki speculates on his plans. He knows where Mugairyu and Ittoryu stand, but there's the case of Manji- the loose cannon. He can't pin him down- What team does he fight for?
Yeppers. It's Manji. Come to see what Mugai-ryu is all about.
