Atsuhime
Imperial Court and Feudal Clan (1x34)
:
In sending Kazunomiya to Edo castle, the Imperial Court made requests that upset the "Ooku." Once in the castle, she is attracted to Iemochi at first sight despite her anxiety. However, she is infuriated by given a lower seat than Tenshoin during their first meeting and expresses her anger by referring to her without an honorific title which hiked hostility between the two. Young frustrated samurai in Satsuma were planning to reform the shogunate.
