Taira no Shigemori, a man with eyes that can see the dead meets Biwa, a Biwa Hoshi who can see the future, and he gets told "you will all perish soon." From an aristocratic reign to a Samurai's reign, this is the beginning of the 15 turbulent years of historical change in Japan.

Explanation by inim on Saturday, 04.12.2021 20:17
Both shows cover the end of their historic period trough civil war. For Heike Monogatari the Genpei War (1180-1185 CE) which marks the beginning of the Japanese middle ages (Heian -> Kamakura), Hyouge Mono it's end (Sengoku -> Edo, late 16th century).
Both shows cover samurai history and war, but don't focus strongly on that aspect. They also cover dynastic family life, romantic relations, slice of life, arts and politics. Emphasis is not so much on the detailed history, but on characters, emotions and motivations. Just like Shakespeare's version of history compares to a scholarly text
