The 47th NHK Taiga Drama tells the life story of Princess Atsu, who was born in Kagoshima Prefecture, then known as Satsuma, and became the wife of Tokugawa Iesada, the 13th shogun of the Tokugawa shogunate. She ascends to the highest rank in Ooku, the inner palace of Edo Castle where women related to the reigning shogun lived. Iesada dies shortly after their marriage, and at the age of 23, Atsuhime takes on the name Tenshoin. She dedicates herself to the Tokugawa clan and the nation during the turmoil of the Meiji Restoration, led by those from Satsuma.
