I wonder if anyone in the comments section speaks English and can help me with understanding some of the Japanese? He said he worked as a ronin. The translation is "a warrior, a samurai without a master, who travelled the country offering his service to anyone in need of a sword to hire." is there a more modern meaning or did he literally travel as a samurai for hire? Thank you in advance.

Ronin means that a student who failed entrance exam for university. It is used mainly for high school students in Japan. They will study additional 1~2 years for it. Shibu-san(right side of the screen) said that he was a Ronin student and studied additional 2 years. After 2 years as a ronin student, he decided to give up the entrance exam and start his work as a part-time worker. This word also has the meaning of what you commented. However, in our daily life,we use this word as a student who failed entrance exam.
