HIGHLIGHTS:
Kenshin's special training continues. Seijuro is surprised at how rusty Kenshin has become. Kenshin laments his lack of time and asks to get to the special technique. Seijuro draws his sword to "Hiten Mitsurugi-ryu's double Battojutsu Soryuusen" with its first attack being the sheath attack following with the sword attack!
The night before Kenshin started training, Okina is attacked by the Owl Ninja clan. They are no match for Okina and the Oniwaban Group.
Okina sent the Owl Clan's leader back to Shishio's location tortured and with a message to Aoshi to meet him back at a familiar location.
Meanwhile, Misao is shocked to hear from Kaoru that four of the strongest Oniwaban members were killed. She races to Restaurant Aoiya only to find that Gramps had left wearing his ninja garb and carrying his weapons from his active days. After she is told Location A, Misao races to get there on time to stop them.
Just as the title says...this is the episode where Aoshi and Okina fight.
Sadly, Misao arrives just as Okina is cut down by Aoshi.
