Synopsis
One of the countless waterfalls in Kuroyama Hyakutaki — the so-called "Iwana-dome no Taki," considered a treasure trove of iwana. They say a giant iwana over a meter long, with a crimson red back — known as "Akabuchi" — lives here. Sanpei is, of course, only after the Akabuchi. But just then, a young girl named Toki, from the Hyakuko family — a rod-making family for generations — appears with a rod that has been handed down through the ages.
