Beschreibung:
"Dainippon Meisho Kagami" (Mirrors of The Famous Generals of Japan). Minamoto no Raiko (Yorimitsu) and his four retainers in the Shuten-doji's wild party. Shuten-doji was a violent and dangerous chief of robber-bandits who lived in Mt.Ooe. He ate human flesh and drunk enormous amount of sake without any sign of intoxication. Raiko put the magical sleeping pills which he had received from a "sennin" into Shuten-doji's drinks. Afterwards, Raiko and his retainers could finally eradicate Doji and the robber groups from Mt. Ooe and restored the peace in Kyoto.
