Rurouni Kenshin #25

In "Act 218 - Madness Released," Kenshin is unexpectedly handed a bottle of perfume once beloved by Tomoe—its scent a quiet echo of the past. Meanwhile, Yahiko wrestles with a secret he’s kept, torn between truth and protecting Tsubame’s peace. And from the shadows, Hyogo escapes prison, his eyes fixed on Kenshin with a fury that’s been years in the making. Written by Nobuhiro Watsuki, Kenichiro Yagi, and Pancha Diaz, and illustrated by Watsuki with inks by Shinga Gin and Shinya Suzuki, this issue captures the weight of history and the storm of unresolved pain. The cover by Nobuhiro Watsuki and Matt Hinrichs captures the tension in a single, haunting image.
