Thank you so much for watching!

There are over 200 kagura troupes in Hiroshima Prefecture working to pass down and preserve the rich heritage of the traditional performing art of kagura. Before COVID-19, kagura troupes would perform to large audiences at events, festivals, and even kagura competitions. With international travel still not back to what it once was, we thought we’d bring the magic of kagura to you at home, complete with English subtitles, until the day when travel to Japan is possible.

If you enjoyed this performance, we invite you to like, share, and subscribe for more great kagura content. Share the magic of kagura and we hope to see you in Hiroshima soon!

ご視聴ありがとうございます。
この映像は将来、日本にお越しになる外国人観光客の方々が広島神楽に興味を持って頂き、県北など神楽の本場に足を運んで頂くきっかけとなることを願い、英語の字幕をつけて配信いたします。
外国人のみならず、神楽をご存じない方にも神楽を知って頂くきっかけとなることを願っています。

【Synopsis】
About 1000 years ago, when the capital of Japan was in Kyoto, the aristocrats held all the political power, living in opulence and excess while the people in the countryside lived in poverty. Angered by the divide between rich and poor, a warrior named Taira-no-Masakado set out to begin his own government in the eastern provinces. However, when the Kyoto government heard of his plans, they sent the Imperial Army crush the rebellion, killing Masakado and his entire family, save for his daughter.

Takiyasha-hime is the story of Masakado’s daughter and her quest to avenge her father. She prays for seven days and nights at a shrine to be given magical powers so she will be strong enough to take on imperial forces. Granted her wish for power, she then heads to the eastern provinces to gather men who are still loyal to her father and their cause. Meanwhile, back in Kyoto, rumors of Takiyasha-hime’s powers begin to grow and General Mitsukuni is ordered to head east to face her. After a great battle, Takiyasha-hime is defeated.
