No motivation, no sense of mission, no attachment Why did such a person seize the country? On the eve of the upheaval, the Hōjō family continued to hold a dictatorship, and the credibility of Kamakura-fu had fallen to the ground. Tadayoshi ASHIKAGA always encouraged his lazy brother Takauji and tried to protect him from the purge of the Shogunate. Before long, the Emperor issued an Imperial order to subjugate the Hōjō family, and the whole family rebelled against him. On the other hand, Nao Takashi, a senior vassal of the Ashikaga family, was appalled at the arrival of the Imperial Court after overthrowing the Shogunate. Emperor Godaigo had no intention of entrusting the government to samurai. Together with Tadayoshi, who was furious, he began planning to establish a new Shogunate without Takauji. Why did a person like Takauji, who lacked the will, climb to the top of the power despite being faced with downfall many times? It is a historical group drama that reveals the secret of the first Shogun Takauji ASHIKAGA, who is the founder of the Shogunate but is still shrouded in mystery.
