The two boys Gin and Jinrou form a tough team in the mountains. One day,
Gin decides that the only way they can move forward is to travel to the
capital and join the Shinsengumi. It soon becomes clear, though, that
they are not tough enough to handle the kind of people they find in the
capital. Some of them, including the current Shinsengumi members, smell
like beasts to Jinrou, and they seem to have unusual abilities. After
Gin's tragic death, Jinrou is determined to become stronger and join the
Shinsengumi in his place!
