Fuu, a young waitress, enlists the aid of Mugen, a rogue and unpredictable swordsman, and Jin, a stoic and skilled ronin, to find a mysterious samurai who smells of sunflowers. Their journey is far from a straight path. They encounter bandits, corrupt officials, artists, and other eccentric characters, all while navigating their clashing personalities and fighting styles.
