Ōoku: The Inner Chambers

Ōoku: The Inner Chambers

Finished

大奥

In an alternate Edo-period Japan, a mysterious plague known as the Redface Pox has decimated the male population, reducing men to a mere quarter of the populace. Women have assumed all societal roles, including that of the Shogun. The most beautiful men are now sequestered and sent to serve in the Shogun's Inner Chambers, the Oooku, as precious providers of life.

Shogun Yoshimune Tokugawa, confronting a world of strange new traditions born from this catastrophe, delves into the historical chronicles to understand the origins of this female-dominated hierarchy. Her investigation traces the brutal and transformative story back to the first female shogun, Iemitsu Tokugawa, and the fateful moment a young monk named Arikoto was conscripted into the Oooku's gilded cage.
