Ép. 6: Rin défend Renzo d'un samouraï arrogant tandis que Manji affronte le père du garçon, Araya Kawakami.

Rin has frustrating encounter at a food stand where young boy named Renzo Kawakami tests her patience, however she recalls what he grandfather said about the futility of revenge and ignores his rude behaviour. Meanwhile, Manji encounters Araya Kawakami at a mask shop who reveals that he was a member of the Ittou-ryuu. Later, an arrogant samurai unfairly blames Renzo for breaking one of his sandals, but Rin defends the boy and offers to fix the sandal. She mentions she is from the Asano dojo and the man mocks her family's name and rudely begins to sneak his foot into her kimono. Rin humbly fixes the sandal and accepts Renzo's invitation to his family house for tea and purposely goes without her sword. She meets his father Araya Kawakami, and tells him about the murder of her parents two years earlier. Kawakami realizes that Rin is the daughter of the couple he killed and sends Renzo away to fetch more tea. Rin says she does not want vengeance, just an apology. He refuses her request and attacks her but Manji arrives as Kawakami is about to strangle her. The two men duel in the room, and Manji stabs and then kills Kawakami. Renzo returns, and seeing his father dead, spears Manji who pretends to die. To dissuade Renzo from pursuing Manji for revenge, Rin convinces the boy that he is dead by showing his arm buried in the ground. Manji later re-attaches the arm to his body. (Source: Wikipedia)
