Yoshitsune

The O-hashi Bridge in Gojo (1x5)

:

On the way going back from Kyoto, Shanaou is stopped on Gojo-oohashi Bridge by Benkei who has been hunting swords from the Heike people. Mistaking Shanaou for a Heike, Benkei attacks him suddenly. During their fight, Yoshitsune drops the flute given by his mother in a river. When Tokiko hears from Kiyomori about his plan to make their daughter Tokuko the Emperor's bride, she sets out a scheme to realize the plan. One day, Shanaou meets his friend Utsubo again at the temple. He is amazed to find her matured having survived through difficulties and she reminds him of Tokiwa, his mother. After Shanaou sees Utsubo off in Kyoto, he happens to be chased by the Heike warriors. When he runs into a shrine to hide, he meets Shizuka, a dancer who helps him out from the chase. Kiyomori took a prestigious sword, "Higekiri no Tachi" which had been always inherited by the Genji successors, at the end of the battle of Heiji. This sword turns out counterfeit and Kiyomori rages against Yoritomo who intentionally made the false assertion on the sword. In Kyoto, the Heike also searches for Shanaou as he is Yoritomo's younger brother.
