After meeting and being rescued by the Rurouni Kenshin Himura, Kaoru allows him to stay in her Dōjō to repay Himura for saving her. Though their relationship initially begins as one of mutual gratitude and respect, Kaoru essentially serves as Kenshin's primary motivating factor and the anchor to his shattered self-worth, slowly becoming a love interest.
