To avenge the woman and friends he loved, one lone warrior must seek out and slay his former comrade... but how do you kill someone who is already dead? The solitary ninja must find the answer to that very question, and the ancient secrets of the world's oldest clan of professional assassins are pitted against the forces of evil! From nightmarish battles in which blood-soaked clay literally becomes the feeding ground for the dark creatures that lay in wait beneath the surface of the earth, to flesh-eating stallions and shape-changing spiders.

In Villgust, a world that runs parallel to ours, peace reigned until an evil deity reawakened and unleashed dark creatures that ravaged countries and plunged the planet into despair. To end the darkness, the people pleaded with the goddess Windina, who handpicked eight courageous heroes to take on the evil deity. However, the warriors remain clueless about the mission. Thus, two groups comprise Kui, Chris, Fanna, and Youta, and Murobo, Remi, Ryuquir, and Bostov-all blessed by Windina must unite to find the path that will lead them to victory against the malevolent deity.

Kiroemon Natsume is the 45th leader of the Natsume family. Each leader inherits the power of extreme luck, which is sealed away in their left ear. He returns to Japan from Italy to succeed his father as head of the family, but falls in love with Kanako, a member of the rival Mina family. When he discovers that the Mina family is holding her as a hostage to use against him, he will stop at nothing to get her back.

The story takes place in old Tokyo, the Tokyo of August-September 1923. At this moment in time, the city is a mixture of extremes... past and present, rich and poor, good and bad. This is a city where we see both horsecarts and motorcars, swords and pistols, lords and businessmen. A wealthy woman from an upper-class family finds herself attracted to a handsome young man, Taka. He and his younger brother seem to be allied, perhaps not entirely willingly, with some of the city's criminal underground (Yakuza). The lady's lovely young maidservant, Sara, meets him too, and a conflict ensues which can only lead to tragedy, passion, and dishonor. But, as events move on, and the days pass, the viewer sees a terrible date coming closer... that unforgettable day of September 1, 1923, at 11:58, when the Great Kanto Earthquake and tidal wave struck Tokyo, causing the death of almost 100,000 people, one of the greatest disasters in human history.
