If you have access to the first tv season of "Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu" there is no need to watch this OVA. It's basically the first episode of it which is the prologue to the main part of the series.
Since I really love the series I wanted to watch anything available of it. If you don't like repetitions just watch the "Director's Cut"-edition of the first episode of the first season and the rest as usual.
Either way the story is very enjoyable in each form.

It does not comprise a style or a genre per se, but rather indicates the publisher`s intended target demographic., mangaManga is the lifeblood that drives the anime industry. Everything and its mother is based on manga. However! There are exceptions where the manga was not the basis for the anime. See also manhua and manhwa. |

main cast
The story revolves around a mature prisoner who was released on good behavior. He is called Yotarou by others, a term that means an "anti-hero" or a "dim-witted man." When he returns to society, he starts a new life in rakugo (comic storytelling). Touched by Musho Yakumo's role as the "grim reaper," he asks the master to take him in as an apprentice.
