About One Samurai from Kagoshima / Romance!!
-- One Samurai from Kagoshima -- Set during the troubled times of the early post-shogunate period, this story takes place in a region known as the Satsuma Domain, home to the majestic volcano, Mt. Sakurajima. The protagonist, Toshiaki Kirino, is born into a poor resident samurai family of the region yet grows to become one of the driving forces behind the Meiji Restoration, demonstrating extraordinary courage and swordsmanship. --- Romance!! -- “Romance!!” is the 19th program in the Romantic Revue series, which illustrates the glamor and tradition of the Takarazuka Revue.
