After having her leg treated from a wound received when her men attacked her, Shura decides to go after Ginjo and the pirates that betrayed her. She makes a loyal cabin boy and an old retainer who cared for her all his life board a ship to escape in case she is killed. Shura leaves the boy and the old man with Kenshin and heads off to confront Ginjo.moreless
I thought it was a good ending. It was a little dull, but it was a filler none the less so whatever. I am so glad that Shura isn't going with Kenshin, cuz Kenshin and Kaoru forever! I think it left some questions left to be answered, like what happened to everyone else at the explosion? Did they all die? The action was pretty good, Shura verses Ginjo is exactly what happened during Sanosuke verses Shura in a previous episode, after Shura had him down, then he got her. She had a taste of her own medicine in the long time. So it was a good end to a filler arc.moreless
At the end of the show, when Kenshin and Shuura say there goodbyes, Kenshin's huge scar on his right cheek disappears, but appears again as Shuura leaves on her boat.

This episode didn't happen in the original manga.
Edit
There are two pirates in this episode, one with a big eye and a larger one with short gray hair, who resemble characters in the movie Pirates of the Caribbean.
