Oedo Go-nin Otoko plot
In the 17th century, the Japanese capital Edo suffered a lot from the many itinerant groups of samurai. The samurai, who are under the command of the Shogun, are constantly fighting with the local people. Their leader is Mizuno Jirozaemon who, despite his high rank, is in deep financial trouble. Banzui-in Chobei, also known as the protector of the poor, tries to protect the 808 districts of Edo from the 80,000 samurai whose violent behavior threatens to destroy society.
