Dreaming of the Meridian Arc

Eager officials in modern-day Katori City enthusiastically fund a historical drama about famed surveyor Tadataka Ino, credited with creating Japan's first map in 1821. As screenwriters and researchers dive into pre-production, they stumble upon a staggering revelation that upends accepted history. The honor of crafting that inaugural map, it seems, does not belong to Ino after all. This discovery triggers a chain of comedic and dramatic events, threatening not only the budget of their grand production but also the very foundation of local pride built around this legendary figure.
