All 13 episodes of the dark Japanese anime series. At the turbulent close of the Edo period, a writer called Momosuke (voice of Toshihiko Seki) sets out to travel the land and collect 100 stories to include in his book. When he falls in with a group of outlaws called Mataichi (Ryuusei Nakao), Ogin (Sanae Kobayashi) and Nagamimi (Norio Wakamoto), he finds himself exploring some of the darkest aspects of human nature, in a land ravaged by horrific violence and strife. The episodes are: 'Azuki Bean Washer', 'Willow Woman', 'Enchanted White Fox', 'Dancing Head', 'Salty Choji', 'The Shibaemon Raccoon Dog', 'Katabira Crossroads', 'Field Gun', 'Kowai, the Unkillable', 'Hi-No-Enma, Flames of Desire', 'Marine Spirits', 'The Death Spirits of Seven Man Point: Part 1' and 'The Death Spirits of Seven Man Point: Part 2'.

Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play. The setting is the end of the Edo period amid political strife and human suffering. Young Momosuke, an aspiring author, sets out on a journey to collect 100 stories to make into a book. Right away he meets up with a trio of outlaws: Mataichi the Trickster, Ogin the Puppeteer and Nagamimi the Bird Caller. As they travel, the group encounters the most twisted and horrible parts of human nature. It is the task of this group to punish each person in a manner fitting their crimes - a gruesome undertaking to say the least... Thus, the bells of the requiem are heard throughout the land.
