Ashura

Believing he's accidentally killed an innocent girl named Tsubaki (Rie Miyazawa), famed demon hunter Izumo (Somegoro Ichikawa) hangs up his sword and becomes an actor in the kabuki theater. When he meets Tsubaki again, now a thief imbued with mysterious powers, he tries to learn about her abilities and falls in love with her in the process. Unfortunately, Ashura, the prophesied Queen of Darkness, is being resurrected, and Izumo finds himself torn between good and evil.
