A monk with his back to the wall takes on the substitute mission of the century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChushingura is a period-drama story loved throughout Japan. Many viewers have been moved by the loyal ronin of Ako, led by Kuranosuke Oishi, carrying out their raid against Kozukenosuke Kira to avenge their late lord, Takuminokami Asano, before meeting their own magnificent end. Now Chushingura returns in the Reiwa era with new characters. Original novelist and period-film hitmaker Akihiro Dobashi, whose Samurai Hustle earned 1.5 billion yen and Samurai Shifters earned 1 billion yen, writes the screenplay. Production is handled by Toei Kyoto Studio, which has continually created period films over many years. On a set carefully prepared by professionals committed to the quality of historical drama, accomplished actor Tsuyoshi Muro plays the protagonist, Kosho Kira, and his elder brother Kozukenosuke Kira with brightness and, at times, passion. Eita Nagayama, a close friend of Muro in private life, joins him as Kuranosuke Oishi. Together with a strong cast, Toei gives the traditional image of Chushingura a fresh interpretation. Whether you love Chushingura or have never encountered it, this exhilarating period entertainment from Toei opens its curtain for the Reiwa era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat does the substitute mission require? Keep the death of the elder brother, Kozukenosuke, hidden. Continue impersonating him without being discovered. Deceive Shogun Tsunayoshi Tokugawa, played by Kazuki Kitamura, and his adviser Yoshiyasu Yanagisawa, played by Akira Emoto, to prevent the abolition of the household. Conspire with Ako chief retainer Kuranosuke Oishi to stop the raid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn incident erupts inside Edo Castle. The hated direct shogunal retainer Kozukenosuke Kira is attacked with a sword within the castle itself. The lord of Ako, long subjected to his cruel and persistent bullying, has finally snapped. The attacker is naturally ordered to commit seppuku. Yet the man who was attacked is also near death from the wounds he suffered while fleeing. Dying in flight would bring shame upon a warrior and put his household at risk of abolition, leaving both houses in desperate trouble. A Kira retainer proposes an astonishing solution: use Kosho, the lord’s younger brother and exact lookalike, as a substitute and fool the shogunate. Meanwhile, Ako chief retainer Kuranosuke Oishi appears to be waiting for a chance to exact revenge—or perhaps he is not. Can the two key men from these households work together and complete this extraordinary performance, the substitute mission of the century?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis deluxe edition contains the film on Blu-ray and a separate bonus DVD.
