Synopsis
Edo-era swordsman Jinta protects village priestess, hunts time-spanning threat in epic fantasy journey across eras.
In the Edo era, young Jinta and his sister must flee their home, finding refuge in a mountain village. Years later, Jinta has grown into a skilled swordsman, sworn to protect the priestess of the village shrine. When a mysterious threat emerges from the surrounding wilderness, Jinta is tasked with investigating the danger that lurks beyond the village borders. What begins as a straightforward mission soon evolves into something far more complex, as Jinta finds himself drawn into an epic fantasy journey that transcends the boundaries of time itself. As he pursues his quarry across different eras, he will face challenges that test not only his swordsmanship but his very understanding of duty, destiny, and the nature of good and evil.
