The Kabuki Murders: Edo 1810

In the early 1800's, the government of Japan is paranoid about how to keep the populace under control. One of the ways they hope to assert their control is to close down the kabuki theater--a place where several of the lower classes mix, uncontrolled. Into this dilemma, enters a young samurai, Dai-ichiro, who is obsessed with virtue and gifted with an ability to converse with the dead. Dai-ichiro must follow what he knows is right while mustering the courage to take on the evil forces within the Edo government.
