RYU GA GOTOKU KENZAN
Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan (released in Japan in March 2008) is a spin-off game set in the early years of the Edo period - the beginning of the Tokugawa Shogunate.
Miyamoto Musashi is living under a false identity, as "Kiryu Kazumanosuke", in Gion (Kyoto) in order to get revenge on the people who set him up 5 years earlier at the battle of Sekigahara (1600). While teaching his students one day, he is visited by the Tokugawa Fencing Instructor, Marume, who invites him to fight at the battle of Sekigahara. Before the battle, their unit is instructed to find and kill the "traitor" of the house of Tokugawa and Musashi volunteers to do it. After he completes his assignment, he is ostracised by Tokugawa and has a bounty put on his head. After a year of hiding out in a small farming village and abandoning the sword, he is tracked down by bounty hunters. Thereafter, he leaves the village and is confronted by more bounty hunters but is saved by a mysterious monk who helps Musashi start a new life in Gion, working as a Kakemawari.
4 years later, in 1605, Musashi is visited by a young girl who asks him to "Kill Miyamoto Musashi". At first, he refuses, but after the girl goes so far as to sell herself to a brothel in order to give Musashi the money, he agrees to do it and begins seeking information about this man calling himself "Miyamoto Musashi".
NOTEThis guide is based off the official Japanese guide for the game. In fact, in many cases, this guide is simply a translation of that guide. But I do add a few of my own things I think are helpful, and also cut out bits that are redundant. Some sections, like the substory page, are original (I didn't translate from the official guide for this - though I did use the guide's numbering system) and I also add some of my own bits in the text walkthrough.
Also note that this guide was designed for use on a desktop or laptop, however everything should work fine on a tablet device as well. You'll have a very miserable experience using this guide on a smartphone, as there is too much data on most pages for a small device like a smartphone to display neatly.
