Air date: Jul 27, 2014

Ikkyuu is a smart young man. The shogun hears about him and gives him a difficult task: defeating a tiger that lives inside a painting. A child meets an old man in the mountains who tells him that if he goes to the mountain god's shrine and prays, his wish will come true. An old man saves a crane who's been caught by some children.
