"Shanaou Yoshitsune" presents an alternative narrative centered around the celebrated historical figure Minamoto no Yoshitsune and his companions, notably the famed Benkei from the Heian Era. In this version, Yoshitsune is depicted as a frail, sickly boy who encounters Hyouta, an orphan with an identical appearance who performs on the streets for a living. Given his superior physical strength, Hyouta takes on the role of Yoshitsune, eventually adopting the name.
This manga weaves a fictional tale, rich with historical references, chronicling his quest to restore the honor of the Genji (Minamoto) Clan.
