About Nemuri Kyoshiro
Blue-eyed ronin Nemuri Kyōshirō is ordered to eliminate assassins targeting a senior official. A rosary links the plot to hidden Christians, drawing him into rival power struggles—and multiple factions trying to kill him.
Directed by Takashi Isshiki, Nemuri Kyoshiro leans on a strong ensemble — Yuina Kuroshima, Hiroki Hasegawa, Mitsuko Takahashi — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2026.
