Who is Battosai Himura?
A figure shrouded in legend within the pages of Rurouni Kenshin, Battosai Himura made their catalog debut in issue #22 (2005) under the creative hands of Nobuhiro Watsuki and Kenichiro Yagi, arriving during the Modern Age of comics through Viz's beloved manga line. With just seven recorded appearances, this is a presence felt more as a looming shadow than a constant fixture — yet that scarcity only deepens the intrigue. Sharing those pages with iconic names like Kenshin Himura, Kaoru Kamiya, Megumi Takani, Enishi Yukishiro, and Yahiko Myojin places Battosai Himura squarely at the heart of one of manga's most celebrated samurai sagas. For collectors and fans of Rurouni Kenshin, tracking down these appearances is a worthy quest.
