Samurai Shodown Storyline (Samurai Shodown Series)

Samurai Showdown
Plagues of unknown origin, strange phenomena, repeated outbreaks of war: these were enough to cause panic and plunge people into despair.

But one smiled as he surveyed the unfolding chaos rending the world asunder.

For this "man," once slain by the forces of the Tokugawa Shogunate, hate for the Shogunate is all he possesses along with newly acquired dark powers to bring it down.

This "man," Tokisada Amagusa, unleashes his unworldly forces and spreads his false creed in an attempt to lead the world to ruin.

But in the midst of such calamities, there were still warriors who put their beliefs to the test. These warriors spurred by different motives and beliefs converge as if drawn together, battle, and make their way to the source of the chaos.
