I wish I could say that what I’m about to tell you is one of those ‘only in Japan’ kind of stories but I can’t because this one happened in the UK. So lets call it an ‘only because of Japan’ story ok?

A group of burglars entered a home in South Shields, England and start robing the place, a woman on the inside of the house sees this and starts screaming her heart out. Thankfully a couple of police officers were nearby, heard the poor woman’s screams and ran into the house to see what was up.

Now the criminals where not scared, not only did they outnumber the cops but they where armed with hammers, knifes and chains. One of the knife-bearing thieves runs toward a police officer and stabs him. - Oh shit! - Then out of nowhere a guy with with a katana appears and strikes the stabber with the blade. One of the other robbers tries to run away but our samurai friend gets to him first and strikes his arm with the katana.

The officers manage to arrest two of the criminals but our modern day Kenshin is gone without a trace. I shit you not.

Police are actively trying to find this sword-carrying hero. Either he’s been watching too much samurai flicks or Ubisoft’s staff is taking research for Red Steel 2 quite seriously.

Here’s to you, Lone Samurai, cheers!
