Lion Crest (1958)

A group of black hoods calling themselves the Golden Spider Party appeared near the border of Joshinetsu and attacked the Sado Kinzan Transport Corps heading for Edo. To investigate this case, the Shogun family appointed Kyotsuki Shishinosuke. Shishinosuke learned that his friend Tatsunoshin Fujiki had been killed because he was on the escort of this convoy and he left Edo with a vow to avenge him. His companion is Fujiki's younger sister Hagino. On the way to Sakamoto-shuku, he meets a mysterious samurai and takes his invitation to a house. Shishinosuke hears that the gunsmiths who live in the area are disappearing one after another, he infiltrates into a hideout as one of the black hoods, where he reunites with a mysterious samurai. The name of the samurai is Kotaro Kansaka. He was the son of Gennai Kansaka, who was active as a warrior of Amakusa Shiro in the Shimabara Rebellion. It is said that Gennai was forced to make gunpowder by using the golden spider party's obsession to reward Tokugawa for the revenge of the Shimabara Rebellion. Kotaro and Shishinosuke want to help Gennai and join hands to commit to the destruction of the Golden Spider crew. However, the identity of the chief Song Juro's hood has not yet been found out. Hagino and Kanji's younger sister, Omachi, who followed them is captured, and Shishinosuke is also put in the tatami room. (Source: db.eiren) Edit Translation
