About Drifters
In the year 1600, the decisive Battle of Sekigahara took place.
In Satsuma Prefecture, Shimazu family military commander Toyohisa Shimazu had managed to escape death after risking his life in the battle to retreat, and was wondering around in the mountains.
In the middle of the pouring rain, he ends up in a corridor-like room with endless doors. There Toyohisa ends up being sent through a stone door to the other side, without even having the chance to question the mysterious man Murasaki.
This is a world ruled by the Kingdom Orte, another world where humans and demi-humans live. Along with war heroes Nobunaga Oda and Yoichi Nasu No who have drifted here from another time, with his unwavering samurai ideology Toyohisa rushes to this new world’s battlefield!
