Synopsis
1920s orphan Momiji and Basilis; 1997 descendants NeoBasilis, Ryuuto, Shuka, Shikata echo love and duty across eras.
Japan, 1920: Momiji, a graceful 17-year-old orphan, was taken in as a child by the affluent Midorikawa family. She shares an unbreakable bond with Basilis, a magnificent mare who is her closest companion. Within the grand estate, tender feelings blossom between Momiji and one of the Midorikawa sons, yet their path is shadowed by the rigid expectations and traditions of the era. Japan, 1997: Nearly eight decades later, the legacy of the Midorikawa family endures through a new generation. Among them is NeoBasilis, a stunning mare descended from the original Basilis, whose presence hints at the enduring spirit of the past. In this modern age, new hearts navigate the complexities of love and duty, as Ryuuto, Shuka, and Shikata find themselves drawn together by forces both old and new. (Source: Ultimate Manga Guide)
