Uzumasa Limelight

Seiichi has devoted more than 50 years of his life to becoming a kirareyaku actor, whose role in samurai epics is to die by the sword of the lead star. He has been slain on camera thousands of times and is well respected by his peers. Out of the blue, the film studio where Seiichi works announces that it is ending production of these action-packed epics. Seiichi is at a loss until he meets a young woman named Satsuki and she becomes his willing disciple.
