切腹
Down-on-his-luck veteran Tsugumo Hanshirō enters the courtyard of the prosperous House of Iyi.

The senior counselor for the Iyi clan questions the ronin’s resolve and integrity, suspecting Hanshirō of seeking charity rather than an honorable end. What follows is a pair of interlocking stories which lay bare the difference between honor and respect, and promises to examine the legendary foundations of the Samurai code.
