The last great rakugo storyteller of the Showa Era, Yakumo Yurakutei, continues to tell his apprentice, Yotaro, of the promise he made to his late best friend and rival, Sukeroku.

Can he and Sukeroku continue to walk the same path, or will their journey through the world of rakugo together be severed? Show more
