Synopsis

On July 15, 1991, Satoru Ichijo is about to give a lecture at Tokyo Dome. Time goes back to a fateful spring day right before his college graduation. Satoru received a message from the spiritual world and realized his calling to lead humankind to happiness. During his constant contact with spirits, Satoru became a successful businessman who everyone envied as an elite employee. To enlighten the world, he published “Spiritual Message” books one after another with his family's support. One day, spirits inform him of an overwhelming task: “Your mission as the Buddha reborn, is to save all people by spreading the Truth.” Satoru tried to rise up to the challenge, but his decision was shaken by the devil’s temptation.
