Kiramune Presents READING LIVE 10th Anniversary Blu-ray is here!
“Kiramune” has held “Kiramune Presents READING LIVE” every October since 2012. “Hakoku no Ken”, which is the 10th anniversary of the reading live performance, is written by Fukui Harutoshi known for “Mobile Suit Gundam UC”, and depicts the lives of people fighting over the “Hakoku no Ken”, a sword with the power to control “time”, set in Edo period. The stage performance that combines reading and action with “shadows” running across the stage has become a new era of “reading live performance” with “Kiramune”‘s voice actors, including Kamiya Hiroshi and Uemura Yuto, as well as experienced voice actors such as Ginga Banjo and Takagi Wataru.
The first Blu-ray of the reading live performance will include mainly the Chiba performance on the last day, October 24, 2021, which was an immediate sell-out, as well as the [A team] and [B team] performances and curtain calls from both days.
≪Story≫
At the end of the Edo period, the long-ruling Tokugawa shogunate lost its power and people’s lives became increasingly impoverished.
Sakichi, a member of the secret organization “Pater Noster” made up of hidden Christians, is ordered to steal the hidden treasure “Hakoku no Ken”, which has been sealed by the shogunate for 250 years, and sneaks into the tomb of Tokugawa Ieyasu at Nikko Toshogu Shrine.
A demonic sword which, if used by an unqualified person, will destroy the spirit―― In the midst of a fierce battle for the sword, Sakichi is somehow chosen as the perfect candidate.
He turns his back on God, who has never helped him, and responds to his heart’s determination to take happiness into his own hands.
But it was also a clever plan by Tachibana Yoshimasa, the shogunate’s senior official who knows the secret of the “Hakoku no Ken”.
The “Hakoku no Ken” with its magical power to show a glimpse in the future, makes its wearer an invincible swordsman……
What is Yoshimasa’s plan to use this power to interfere with “time”? In a time of great change in Japan, a battle that will shake history is about to begin.
