Ukyo, the son of the Magistrate, kidnaps Kirara for his harem; it is up to Rikichi and Komachi to save her, with the help of the only two samurai they've recruited: young, idealistic Katsushiro and the boisterous cyborg Kikuchiyo. The soft-spoken master samurai, Kambei, has declined to join their cause but saves Kirara from Ukyo's men.
