The Elusive Samurai, Vol. 22 is a historical action manga within the comics and graphic novels category. Set in medieval Japan, the story follows Hojo Tokiyuki, the rightful heir to the Kamakura shogunate. After his clan is betrayed, Tokiyuki survives by utilizing his unique talent for evasion. In this volume, the young lord is forced from his mountain defenses in Shinano and must navigate a landscape of shifting political alliances following the death of Emperor Go-Daigo.

As the narrative progresses, Tokiyuki matures into an adult while the Ashikaga shogunate descends into internal conflict. Tensions between Tadayoshi and Moronao lead to inevitable bloodshed, raising questions about Takauji's true motives. While dealing with complex romantic choices between Shizuku, Ayako, and Mima, Tokiyuki faces a surprising encounter with a lost comrade during a siege. This volume continues the strategic struggle to reclaim a stolen birthright.
