Shinsengumi Keppuroku 2011 TV Mini Series
STARRING: Nagai Masaru Takuma Takayuki Tsujimoto Yuki Maeda Aki
Based on Shiba Ryotaro’s legendary novel. The arrival of Perry's Black Ships rudely awakened Japan from 300 years of peaceful isolation from the world. Men set their eyes beyond Japan and began to demand change in society. Old clashed with the new, and thus began an age of turmoil.
Amidst this confusion, one group remained true to the old ways and risked their lives to preserve the traditional shogunate system. Led by their charismatic captain, Kondo Isami, the SHINSENGUMI upheld the code of honor of the samurai. Tales abound of the feats of men like Kondo, Hijikata Toshizo and Okita Soshi.
