Other name: 陽だまりの樹

Description:

Set against the chaotic backdrop of the final days of the Tokugawa shogunate, A Tree In The Sun (Hidamari no ki) is a compelling historical drama that follows two young men bound by a deep bond of friendship. As their world crumbles, they strive to carve out their own destinies and stand firmly by their convictions. Ibuya Majiro, played by Ichihara Hayato, is an honest yet boorish low-ranking samurai serving the Hitachifuchu domain. While highly skilled, his uncompromising honesty makes navigating life difficult, yet he remains fiercely loyal to the collapsing shogunate. In contrast, Tezuka Ryoan, portrayed by Narimiya Hiroki, is a talented doctor of Western medicine. Although Ryoan is known as an irresponsible womaniser, he is a deeply compassionate man who will go to any length to save his patients. Together, this contrasting duo navigates a rapidly changing Japan, offering a powerful story of loyalty, medicine, and survival during a monumental turning point in history.
