Sometime after the events of Azumi, the eponymous protagonist (Aya Ueto), a beautiful young assassin, and her sole surviving friend, Nagara (Yuma Ishigaki), set out to prevent a rebellion against the Tokugawa Shogunate by a recalcitrant feudal lord who is being aided by a clan of killers with supernatural powers. Soon after taking on this mission, Azumi and Nagara are joined by a young man, Ginkaku (Shun Oguri), who resembles another of their old friends, whom Azumi herself previously killed, and by a young woman, Kozue (Chiaki Kuriyama), with mysterious motives of her own.
