Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
When a flamboyant but down-on-their-luck pair of Edo-period samurai blast off onto the open roads to do battle with heroin addiction and ponder the true meaning of life at the shrine of Ise, a blip in reality finds them thrust into a world where fantasy takes the place of the everyday, and the past merges with the present with disorienting hilarity. From the warped mind of Zebraman writer Kankuro Kudo comes a hallucinogenic tale of gay love in a world where nothing is as it seems.
