Eiichi, who learned how Qing lost to Britain in the Opium War in a book recommended by Atsutada, is worried about the future of Japan's opening. Meanwhile, Eiichi's older sister, Naka, blocks her relationship with her uncle, Sosuke, for the superstitious reason that "there is a possession in the other party's house." On the other hand, Nariaki , who still cannot accept the policy of the Shogunate, goes out of control. Abe Masahiro and Nariaki's aide Fujita Toko desperately blame Nariaki. At that time, a big earthquake hits Edo. (Source: NHK)
