Kenshin Himura (Takeru Satô) is summoned by the government to help them to find Shishio in Kyoto. He refuses first, but when a minister is murdered, he accepts to go and leaves the dojo of Kaoru Kamiya (Emi Takei) and the boy Yahiko Myojin (Kaito Ohyagi), his friend Sanosuke Sagara (Munetaka Aoki) and Dr. Kenshin meets the thief Makimachi Misao (Tao Tsuchiya) that tries to steal his sakabato on the way to Kyoto and they stumble upon a boy that tells that his brother and his parents are in danger. They find the trio murdered by Shishio's men and Kenshin defeats them in the nearby village. A man called Sojiro Seta (Ryûnosuke Kamiki) contacts Kenshin and brings him to meet Shishio that asks Sojiro to duel Kenshin.
Their sword fight stops when Kenshin's sakabato is broken and Shishio and his men go away. Meanwhile, Kaoru decides to find Kenshin in Kyoto and Yahiko and Sanosuke follow her. When Kenshin arrives at Kyoto, Misao asks whether he would like to go to a cheap inn. Kashiwazaki Nenji (Min Tanaka), who was the ninja Okina that worked for the Tokugawa shogunate, runs the place and teams up with Kenshin. He seeks out the talented blacksmith Shakku Arai to repair his sakabato and finds that he is dead.
Arai's son Keiku does not help Kenshin, but when the evil Sawagejo Cho (Ryosuke Miura) kidnaps his baby, he calls Kenshin to save his son and gives him a new sakabato. Kenshin defeats the Shishio's warrior and he is arrested by the police. Soon Hajime and Kenshin learn that Shishio intends to burn Kyoto down and they prepare the defense of the town. Is Sawagejo Cho telling the truth? "Rurôni Kenshin: Kyôto taika-hen", a.k.a. "Rurouni Kenshin: Kyoto Inferno", is a spectacular sequel of "Rurôni Kenshin: Meiji kenkaku roman tan". The story follows Kenshin and his friends from the first film and introduces a villain more evil than in the first film. The sad moment is the unknown fate of the gorgeous and sweet Kaoru Kamiya.
