Plot Summary:
The "Hyakunin Isshu" are an anthology of one hundred poems found in a trational Japanese card game called Karuta. Presented by the person who selected the writings, Fujiwara no Teika, this is a glimpse into the origin of some of them. Since the majority of them are love compositions, the focus remains on romance in ancient Japan. (from ANN)
The Chihayafuru poems come to life! This is very sweet and I like the art work. I love the narrator too. And it was very nice to see Chihaya's signature poem featured!!
