Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©
Set in the Edo period, Kikunosuke is a young man with a beautiful appearance. He comes to Tokyo in search of someone who killed his father. On a snowy night, he finally confronts his enemy right next to the theater and successfully gets his revenge by killing that person. People praise Kikunosuke for that.
A year and a half later, Samurai Soichiro Kase (Tasuku Emoto), who claims to be Kikunosuke's relative, visits the theater to know the full story about Kikunosuke's revenge. As Soichiro Kase listens to those involved with Kikunosuke, the truth gradually comes to light.
