RONIN-GAI is set in the 1830s, during a period of great upheaval in Japanese society. At a bar and brothel in Edo, many masterless samurai gather, somehow sensing that the end is near for their way of life. Spending their time drinking and cavorting with the prostitutes, the samurai have lost all purpose in their lives. However, when another group of renegade samurai that have turned to violence and pillaging enter the town, the listless samurai who frequent the bar see a chance to regain their lost honor. RONIN-GAI contains both drama as well as sword-fighting action. [More]
