A fugitive from the future crashes into modern Tokyo with a time machine and four unwilling passengers. What should be a simple escape becomes a sprint through Japanese history, each jump backward answering fewer questions than it creates. The film treats time travel not as a puzzle to solve but as a collision between eras, where a desperate man's choices ripple across centuries and a group of strangers become witnesses to their own nation's fractures. The romance never quite lands, and the plot buckles under its own momentum by the final act. What saves it is the specificity: nobody else is writing time travel stories that move through samurai Japan and Nobunaga's court with this kind of lived-in urgency. This is a film built for viewers who want temporal chaos with Japanese historical texture, not a clean narrative.

A fugitive from the future steals a time synchronization system in Neo-Tokyo, in the new Calendar Year of 392, and flees toward the past. The pursuing authorities damage his ship and force Jiro down in modern Tokyo. There he breaks into a van, fits it with the device, and carries off three students, Nobucho, Shinichi and Teko, along with their teacher, Hokubei. Their struggle against him sends the group to Tokyo on March 9th, 1945, in the middle of the US bombing campaign. Another escape takes them further back, to the Warring States period, where people from Jiro's era try to change history at a crucial moment at Honnoji. The film is a sci-fi adventure with action and romance, adapted from Taku Mayumura's novel trilogy.
