Bakumatsu Kikansetsu Irohanihoheto

In the final years of the shogunate, swordsman Yojiro Akizuki travels across Japan pursuing a supernatural relic that threatens to spread chaos. His single-minded mission intersects with a traveling theater troupe seeking revenge for the murder of its leader’s parents.

Yojiro lends the performers his strength, while their enigmatic playwright quietly influences events for purposes of his own. As political factions move toward war, personal vendettas become entangled with a struggle over a power that could shape the country’s future.
