The civic group Yokosuka Reiwa-kai, chaired by Hiramatsu Hiroshi, organized an event on October 31 where two specialists gave a deep-dive discussion linking the Edo-period retainer ‘Oguri’—the protagonist of NHK’s 2027 Taiga drama ‘逆賊の幕臣’—with Yokosuka’s history. The talk aimed to spark interest and provide detailed context ahead of the drama’s January 2027 broadcast, drawing attendees from across political and economic backgrounds. Organizers emphasized cross-sector exchange and local engagement through historical storytelling tied to the upcoming national television series.
