On the first day, I watched the second part. One of the three major Kabuki masterpieces, "Kanademoto Chushingura Tendanme Amakawa Yagiheinaiba", is the story of Yoshihei Amakawa, the master of the wholesaler who supported Akaho Nanji just before the debate.
"The Ten Kinds of Shinko Theater" is a dance play full of humor based on kyogen's large songs.

"Kanademoto Chushingura" consists of eleven steps. It premiered in Bunraku and later became popular as Kabuki to this day.
The theme of the "Akaho Incident" in the Edo period is the control of the Shogunate, so the era is set in the Muromachi period, and the names and places of the characters are changed. It is depicted as a "story" full of human dramas, rather than following historical facts and revenges.
Even though he was a townspeople, his heart became hot by the thick Nobuyoshi Amakawaya Yoshihei who supported the defeat of Ako Gishi.
Ryosuke Yu was impressed that Yoshihei was a person who could not reach samurai, and promised that when he entered, he would change it to a general mountain / river password and use Amakawaya's `` heaven / river '' as the slogan .
The synopsis of Amakawaya
A merchant in Sakai, Yoshihei Amakawaya, procured weapons for the Ronins.
He surrounds that the catcher came in and ordered him to catch him with the guilty of procuring weapons etc. at the request of Yusuke Osei. The catchers bring a long-lasting (box) with armor and urge them to whiten it.
Yoshihei keeps the secrets without being threatened or moved, sits on a long life without changing his face, and even if his sword is hit against his son Yumatsu's neck, he cuts white and never remembers a little. I can't say that I know what I don't know, and says, "Yoshihei Amakawaya's Yoshihei is a man."
