Rainbow Samurai

お~い!竜馬

In 19th-century Japan, during the final years of the Tokugawa shogunate, a young boy named Ryoma grows up in a lower-class samurai family on the island of Shikoku. Born under a comet that his sister interprets as a sign of greatness, Ryoma is a sensitive and kind-hearted child who hates violence and often cries when he sees cruelty, earning him the nickname "crybaby" from other children and even his family.

Despite his gentle nature, Ryoma is not a coward. His distress stems from a deep desire to prevent injustice and wrongdoing. His older sister Otome is the only one who truly understands him, recognizing his special talent and protecting him. As Ryoma learns about the oppression faced by lower-class samurai at the hands of the upper class, his kindness transforms into strength, setting him on a path to become one of the key figures who will help open Japan to the Western world.
