This episode is great, there were some great fights in this episode. Kenshim and the others are travelling to the Dr. Gosei's sister, she lives at a countryside and is working for some kind of a young master, his parents died when he was five and so he is a lot arrogant. His father was called Lightning-God Izo, because he could shatter earth as thunder with only a slash of his sword and the kid wants to be as good as his dad. So he wanted Kenshin to teach him, but Kenshin refused to teach him and later when he was learning to ride a horse, he was kidnapped by some bandits and saved by a guy called Raijuuta ,he fought just like Yuta's father, Yuta is the "ittle master". So Yuta asked Raijuuta to be his teacher and he accepted, however didn't teach him anything. Later on Kenshin found out that they are the Shinko Squad and faced them. Well there is mor,e but I don't want to ruin the fun... This is a must see episode.moreless

Yutarou is getting better... but is still kinda bratty.

Ok so... even after Kenshin seriously saves Yutarou's life he wants to go back to Raijuta. What. A. Brat. Anywayz, Yahiko and him duel and Yutarou is using a "real" sword while Yahiko is using one made out of wood. Yahiko seriously kicks his butt. And continously kicks his butt. After this episode, Yutarou starts taking lessons from Kaoru. Also, somewhere between this Yutarou intrudes on Yahiko taking a bath and sees him naked... more perverted Japenese humour! Woot... so after getting better and stuff with the sword that protects people Yutarou still (still) wants to see Raijuta so he runs back to his mansion where a ton of commotion and stuff is going on... this was a good episode, the next one better be better though...moreless

- Sanosuke: Do you know what's one of your faults? You always try to put the whole world on your shoulders just like your doing now. I don't want you to forget that I'm here to help you, you got that? Yahiko: Yeah, and don't forget me either!

  EDIT SHARE
- In the anime, Yutarou never enters the dojo before recovering the ability of using both arms. In the manga, we never see Yutarou again, but we know he's healed when we see a tablet with his name inside the dojo without the observation between parenthesis.
