Since last Wednesday has been released a new Live movie Donten ni Warau (Laughing under the clouds) which we had already announced the production of last year. Moreover, live adaptations against the backdrop of historical canvas have the wind in their sails among the Japanese public. Similarly, we remember the excellent Rurounin Kenshin or the most recent Gintama!
Therefore, we invite you to rediscover this license.

After the Meiji Era Restoration (1867 to 1912) in Otsu, Shiga Prefecture, Japan.
Orochi is a giant snake with enormous power. It comes back once every three hundred years bringing a real disaster to people. This year is unfortunately the cursed year of Orochi's revival. The Kumo family, who succeeded Kumo Shrine, had three sons. The elder Tenka, the younger Soramaru and finally, the youngest Chutaro. The three brothers are on a mission to block Orochi's power. Meanwhile, the Yamainu Special Forces want to restore this power to bring peace to Japan. However, the Anyaku ninja group of the Fuma clan begins its move to gain power from Orochi in order to overthrow the government.
In the midst of the revival power of the giant serpent Orochi, a three-way battle opens between the brothers, the Yamainu special forces and the Anyaku ninja of the Fuma clan!
