    "How an Unknown Doctor Saved Japan ？ "



    The real-life town doctor ・ Ryosaku Kasahara saved the townspeople from smallpox,
    and the story of how he saved Japan by involving the clan and the shogunate



    [STORY]
    The late Edo period. In the late Edo period, smallpox （, a feared deadly disease, was raging and claiming many lives.
    Yoshisaku Kasahara （, a doctor of Chinese medicine and the town doctor of the Fukui domain,
    felt helpless to do anything to help his patients.
    His wife, Chiho （ Yoshimasa's wife, Yoshimasa's wife, Yoshine Kyoko ）, cheerfully continues to encourage him as he blames himself and becomes depressed.
    Yoshisaku tries to find a way to save people, and asks for the teachings of a Dutch doctor in Kyoto, ・ Kinno Kinnoya （ Yakusho Koji ）, to help him.
    One day, while searching for a cure for pox at Tingya's school, he learned that there was a method of vaccination （ in foreign countries, but
    this required importing "seedlings of the pox" from abroad and permission from the shogunate.
    Although it is extremely difficult to achieve, Yoshisaku's determination to never give up eventually leads to the involvement of the clan and even the Shogunate.
