Background Info
History:
Captain Nathan Algren , a disenchanted ex- Sensei and an alcoholic, who is traumatized by his memories fighting in the 3rd ninja war was born in the Land of Iron. He would look up to the samurai that were among the most famous in the whole ninja world. Since the age of 7, he was enrolled in the Shogun's prived army. He went higher in ranks as the years pasted. Until he became a Sensei for the younger generation. About two years after being Senseishipped, the great 3rd war started. He had to lead a 6 man team into battle. His tacktical movement and his skill with the sword was unmatched. As he was leading his team through enemy territory to capture a scroll with important information for the Land of Iron, they fell into a trap set by the enemy. He lost his whole team but managed to escape from them and he even get the scroll unnoticed. He managed to get back home and deliver with succes the scroll back to the Shogun. And that's how the legend of the last samurai was created.
In the years following his army service, Algren makes his living by relating war stories to show audiences in many small hiden villages, an experience which further hampers his mental state. Fed up with Algren's perpetual drunkenness, his employer fires him, forcing Algren to accept an invitation by his former commanding Sensei Bagley , whom Algren deeply hates and blames for his waking nightmares after his role in the massacring of an Iinnocent village during war. Bagley approaches him with an offer on behalf of a businessman from a hidden village, Mr. Omura , to help rebuild and train their new ninja army.
Under the command of Bagley, Algren and his companions travel to the land of the wind. The land of the wind is in the middle of drastic civil change, and the new ninja-world additions to society have not gone unopposed. The samurai are conducting an insurrection against the modernization campaign, and it is for the purpose of suppressing this insurrection that Algren is called to The land of the wind. The newly-formed hidden village army is a poorly-trained and equipped conscripted army of low ranked ninjas totally lacking in combat experience. Algren does his best to remedy this, but before the men are trained to his satisfaction, the leader of the insurrection, Katsumoto , attacks a railroad outside his province. Bagley orders Algren to lead the inexperienced conscripts to engage Katsumoto. Algren protests and, in a demonstration, illustrates the army's inexperience and inadequate training. Bagley dismisses Algren's concerns and orders a regiment to track down and engage Katsumoto.
When the regiment arrives at the battlefield, Bagley moves to the rear and orders Algren to do the same, since the ninjas are technically non-combatants. Algren refuses and takes personal command of the army. During the battle, the conscripted ninjas panic despite Algren's best efforts to keep them under control.
The enemy army swarms the wholly unprepared army and the ninja flee in disarray. Algren stands his ground and manage to kill several high skilled ninjas, he desperately fends off several ninja with a broken spear embroidered with a flag depicting a white tiger. The flag on the spear reminds Katsumoto of a vision he experienced during meditation. Katsumoto's brother-in-law, the red-masked ninja Hirotaro, prepares to finish Algren as well, but Algren seizes a spear from the ground and stabs him through the throat. Believing what he has witnessed to be an omen, Katsumoto prevents his warriors finishing off the wounded Algren and takes him prisoner. Algren is taken to an isolated village, where he gradually recovers in a house belonging to Katsumoto’s family, inhabited by his daughter Taka, her two sons, Higen and Magojiro, and Katsumoto's son, Nobutada .
Over time, Algren overcomes both his alcoholism and the nightmares of his traumatic past, and begins to assimilate to village life, although he does not adopt many local customs. Eventually, he meets Katsumoto, who takes an interest in Algren and begins conversing regularly with him, each gaining a healthy respect for the other. Algren confides to his journal that he has never felt entirely at peace until he came among Katsumoto and his people. Algren starts teaching swordsmanship to the local villagers and ninja. He fell in love with Taka and started reaching through to her son Nobutada. They become a real family.
As he seest that the time is right, he takes his new family with him returns back to the Land of Iron, where he is living a peaceful life. Atleast for now!
