The Story behind Skulls of the Shogun
A shadowy figure stabs General Akamoto in the back thus crushing the tactical genius’s dreams of becoming Shogun. After arriving at the Shores of the Dead, the General assembles a ragtag misfit army and sets off with the aim of battling his way through the four seasons of the afterlife. If Akamoto could not earn the title of Shogun in life, he will earn it in the afterlife. He will become Shogun of the Dead.
