After the events of Hakuoki, Chizuru Yukimura and the Shinsengumi are forced to flee Kyoto and head to Edo. In the absence of their commander, Isami Kondo, vice-commander Toshizo Hijikata takes charge and acts as commander. However, Hijikata not only struggles with the added responsibilities of leadership – which worries those around him – but also has an unquenchable thirst for blood. The situation worsens as he loses control of himself and drives others to madness. In the end, Kondo returns with the others and defends the castle, giving his unit a new name: the Kiwiyu Chinbutai.
