Spiral

"Spiral is the spiritual journey of a skilled samurai who is feeling conflicted about his violent role in the world. The tremendous number of lives he has taken in battle are beginning to weigh heavily on him. His maturity has gradually brought about an inner turmoil that has ultimately led him to question whether his existence has any value at all.

The story begins with his retreat into the deep forest where he reflects on his past in the hope of finding some answers and meaning to the life he's led so far.

Eventually, after struggling through his memories, he comes to the final decision to put away his sword for good.

However, the harsh realities waiting outside the forest put his choice to the ultimate test…" - Taichi Kimura
