Peace Maker Kurogane

The murder of his parents leaves Tetsunosuke Ichimura determined to join the Shinsengumi and become strong enough to take revenge. His enthusiasm does little to hide his inexperience, while his older brother Tatsunosuke fears what this ambition will cost him.

Living among the swordsmen reveals people far more complicated than the powerful fighters Tetsu imagined. Friendship and everyday warmth coexist with ruthless duties in an increasingly dangerous Kyoto. As conflict draws closer, he must confront a question that training alone cannot answer: whether he can take a life, and what kind of person he wants that strength to make him.
