'''a.k.a.:''' ''Grenadier [[The Smiling Senshi]]''
Based in an alternate version of Japan's civil war period,
Learning that there is a price on her head, Rushuna journeys back to the Capital to clear her name. Pursued and watched by a mysterious man in a clown mask, Rushuna must battle the Juttensen or Ten Heavenly Enlightened one by one, each armed with strange and deadly weapons. She gains allies as she travels, beating her enemies with her skills and winning them over with her purity, trying to learn more about the mysterious Jester and to understand the Empress's strange actions.
There's also a manga version with a plot far differing from that of the anime, with Rushuna trying to find her homeland, editing the backstories of some of the major characters (including turning her evil counterpart into an adoptive sister, and the Iron-Masked Baron into a nutjob capable of making Hitler look sane), and turning the world they live in into a [[After the End|post-apocalyptic scenario]], except it's been so long after it that the [[Lost Technology|ancient super weapons]] are buried deep and the world is somewhat flourishing. Production of the manga is currently discontinued in the United States, though; price gouging is inevitable.

* [[Absolute Cleavage]]: Rushuna and many other females display this quite nicely.
* [[Absurdly Sharp Blade]]: In the manga, Yajiro's katana can {{spoiler|cut a giant cannon, with the helpful push of [[Improbable Aiming Skills|12 well-placed bullets]] from Rushuna.}}
