Last Samurai Standing

The year is 1878, late at night at Tenryu-ji Temple in Kyoto. 292 skilled patriots flocked to this place, given the chance to win a huge prize. They were told the rules of a game called "Kodoku", in which each person competes to grab the wooden cards they were given, and the one who makes it to Tokyo will receive the prize. Shujiro Saga decides to participate in this life-risking game in order to save his wife and child from illness.
