“祇園精舍鐘聲響，世間諸行總無常。沙羅雙樹花說法，盛極必衰是滄桑” 平安末期。眼看平家一族將在權力、武力、財力等各方面極盡榮華。擁有看見亡者之眼的男人·平重盛，遇見了擁有看見未來之眼的少女·琵琶。少女預言道：“你們不久便要滅亡”。由貴族社會轉為武家社會——日本實現歷史性變化的、動蕩的15年拉開了序幕。

Villain or hero, Taira no Kiyomori changed Japanese history forever 900 years ago. Without ever knowing his real father, Kiyomori was raised as a samurai. Together with his stepfather, he wiped out piracy along Japan's western coast, becoming a full-fledged warrior samurai. In an age when samurai were looked down on as members of the lower class, Kiyomori was skillful at winning the hearts and minds of the people. By rounding up surrendered pirates and achieving other successes, Kiyomori eventually became the de facto ruler of Japan.
