"This episode introduces kabuki, bunraku, and Noh. It features a scene from Adachigahara that illustrates such distinctive features as the stark stage and stylized movement. The episode also includes a bunraku excerpt from Tsubosaka-kannon Regigenki that highlights the role of the narrator and the puppeteers. It offers scenes from Yoshitsune that show the flamboyant scenery, exaggerated gestures, colorful makeup, and acrobatics of kabuki." -- Container.
