Summary

Set amidst the backdrop of the Bakumatsu Period of Japan (The Last Days of the Tokugawa Shogunate), Hatamoto takes us into the world of the foreign-born men who became direct Vassals of the 15th and final Shogun during the opening salvos of the Boshin War.

For former American Southerner John Paul Ledoux, he will be given the name Gingiro Asakage and the mantle of the two swords of the Samurai and if necessary, he will die for it. Faced with the wrath of his Clan's most senior swordsman Sir Nobutomo Matsunaga and an uncertain future, he will do everything to protect those he has sworn to protect.
