Introduction to the story:
There is a village whose people are poor but happily living by growing rice to feed themselves.
However, the bandits, who are actually samurais who have mechanized their bodies, came to extort from
them and took them off their happiness. Tired of surrendering to the extortion, some of the villagers
tried to rebel but only to be killed instead. Thus the elder decided that they have to hire a samurai
who would help them defeat the bandits � A hungry samurai who would be willing to help them with
all-you-can-eat-rice as the only reward�
Note: This anime is adapted from the original movie - Shichinin No Samurai (Seven Samurai)
