    A beautiful, passionate, and overwhelming masterpiece that will go down in the history of Japanese cinema
    A soul-stirring cinematic experience you must see in your lifetime—

    [Story]
    The man who would later become a National Treasure was born into a clan of chivalrous outlaws.
    Kikuo, blessed with otherworldly beauty, lost his father in a turf war and was subsequently taken in by ・ Hanjiro Hanai, the head of a prestigious Kamigata Kabuki family, plunging him into the world of Kabuki. There, he meets ・ Shunsuke, the heir apparent whose future was assured from birth as Hanjiro’s biological son.

    The forbidden world of “Kabuki” that no one has ever seen. Bloodlines and talent, joy and despair, trust and betrayal. “Tears of emotion” and “ecstasy” await at the end of a harrowing, agonizing life. Why do they cling to the world of the arts, living through turbulent times as they race toward becoming the world’s sole “National Treasure”? ？
    The a breathtaking climax that will shake the soul of every viewer—.

    [Story]

    The time is the Muromachi period. The place is Kazusa Mōda in Chiba Prefecture （ Kazusa Mōda ） .
    To this bountiful village, yokai seeking freedom came to obtain the magnetic rock needed to launch themselves into space ！
    However, only the “Earth People” living in this village were allowed to touch this magnetic rock.
    So the yokai concealed their true identities and devised a plan to exploit the villagers.
    Meanwhile, the villagers—plagued by water shortages and crop failures—witnessed the mysterious powers possessed by the yokai,
    and, seeing their lavish appearance and demeanor, rejoiced, declaring, “The gods of Basara have arrived.”
    Seizing this golden opportunity, the demons managed to strike a deal: in exchange for granting the villagers’ wishes, they would receive the magnetic rock.
    But ！ what awaited the yokai was betrayal that shattered their plan and the wavering hearts of the villagers.
    With developments beyond imagination, the fate of the monsters ！ ？ and the villagers’ salvation … ！ ？ ！
