In the second year of the Keio era (1866), many different ideologies and doctrines regarding Sonno-joi (reverence to the emperor and expulsion of barbarians), pro-shogunate, and anti-shogunate greatly influenced Japan. A boy named Ryo, who regrets not being able to protect his benefactors Ryoma Sakamoto and Shintaro Nakamura, confronts Toshizo Hijikata on the Goryokaku government's flagship Kaiyo, which becomes stranded in a storm off of Esashi, Ezo.
