Synopsis of Ao no Miburo
Although

waiter at his adoptive grandmother's restaurant. But this peace doesn't last
long; Nio and his sister Iroha are used as bait to arrest child kidnappers by
Toshizou Hijikata and Souji Okita, two members of an infamous ronin group
called the Miburo. After the ordeal, Toshizou proposes that Nio join the
Miburo's ranks to protect the people of Kyoto.
Frustrated
by his own weakness, Nio trains to match the swordsmanship of his new
companions. Despite this, he struggles to be accepted by Tarou Tanaka and
Hajime Saitou, the other Miburo members his age. Determined to befriend them,
Nio must discover his own sense of justice and become strong enough to prevail
against all his enemies.
