Oda Nobunaga slips back in time to the present and arrives on the set of "Oda Nobunaga", a historical drama serial. "This is not who I really am!", the short-tempered Nobunaga loses his temper and rewrites the script without permission. It was a small, small-scale drama, just a bunch of maniacal and slightly funny episodes, not a "Taiga Drama" at all. Now filming has begun on a historical drama directed by the real Nobunaga that is "ridiculous but all true"!
