Add to the trio, Awakumo's ever present bake-neko (a cat monster), a mysterious 'eleki' (electric gadgetry and dolls) master enemy who wants to kill Awakumo, a beautiful boy, Tsukiya, also of the enemy, yet who wants to escape his bondage, Shougun, who's later found out to be Awakumo's biological father...(MIN)
Review One strange jidaigeki (historical theatrics), filled with action, fantasy, and romance. OAV probably centers around the thieving stories of manga volume 1 and 2. (MIN)
