Nippon Tanjô plot

"The Birth of Japan!"

Ouso is the heir to the throne of Emperor Keikoh and loved by the people. However, Otomo, an important vassal, prefers Ouso's stepbrother Waka as his successor and persuades the emperor to send Ouso on a hopeless mission. Against the odds, however, Ouso returns, only to find that he is once again sent into war. His fate appears to be linked to that of ancient gods.
