Description
In 1860s Japan, a low-ranking samurai by the name of Sakamoto Ryoma is disappointed with the longstanding shogunate reign. Foreign guns have arrived on Japanese shores, widespread poverty plagues the common folk, and the era is ripe for a revolution.

But Ryoma is not the only one with an agenda, and he is drawn further into the operations of shogunate rule the more he pursues his cause.
