Kamiya Kaoru is the only child of Kamiya Koshijiro, who was the founder of Kamiya Kasshin Ryu and head of the Kamiya Dojo. After her father was killed in the Seinan War, Kaoru was left to run the dojo herself, even though she was only at the level of assistant master. At first everything went OK with Kaoru training ten students in her father's style. However, rumors started circling about a killer claiming to be Hitokiri Battousai, a legendary killer from the Bakumatsu Revolution, who was killing people around town and claiming to use Kaoru's sword style to so. Battousai's ominous reputation caused Kaoru's students to leave the dojo one by one until only she was left. With no students to pay for lessons, how would Kaoru possibly keep her father's dojo? One night, Kaoru was out patrolling around Tokyo, looking for Battousai when she ran into a small swordsman with long red hair and a cruciform scar on his left cheek... Kaoru is a sweet-souled lass, kind-hearted and ready to help out all who need it, sometimes to her own detriment. However, she's very hot tempered and will beat up on anyone who makes snide remarks about her father's dojo or her cooking, in which her skill is sorely lacking. Frightened of being left alone after her father's death, Kaoru throws open her dojo doors to anyone who needs a home then clings fiercely to them once she gets attached to them. |
