Kino has made it to the semi-finals of the tournament, but now the real challenge begins, for Kino is determined that they will win without having to kill their opponents. Will Kino be able to fulfill their self-imposed challenge, or will they be unable to prevent further bloodshed as the final four gladiators battle it out to see who gets the ultimate prize?
In Kino's Journey, the protagonist, Kino, accompanied by a talking motorcycle named Hermes, travels through a mystical world of many different countries and forests, each unique in its customs and people. She only spends three days and two nights in every town, without exception, on the principle that three days is enough time to learn almost everything important about a place, while leaving time to explore new lands.
