The Keeper of the Camphor Tree

The Keeper of the Camphor Tree

Reito Naoi, a young man fired unfairly from his day job, finds himself hitting rock bottom when he's arrested after a desperate attempt to get back on his feet.
With nothing left to him, he surrendered himself to fate, giving up on any hopes for the future, and lost the will to make his own choices in life.
But one day, a chance encounter threw him a lifeline that could change his fate forever.
"If you follow the client's instructions, we'll set you free..."
Appearing before him out of nowhere, a lawyer spoke to him, and he immediately accepted the offer. And thus, Chifune Yanagisawa came into his life.
A major contributor to the success of the large Yanagisawa Group corporation, she was also, apparently, his late mother's half-sister.
"I have orders for you," she claimed. Those orders were to become the Keeper of the Camphor Tree of Tsukisato Shrine.
Though bewildered by such a sudden request, Reito did as he was told, and found himself meeting with the many people patronizing the shrine:
Toshiaki Saji, a man who visits the camphor tree on a regular basis.
Toshiaki's daughter, Yumi Saji, a college student who finds her father's actions suspicious.
Soki Oba, a young man struggling with his role in taking over the family business.
As Reito interacts with them and Chifune, his formerly bleak world begins to take on new life.
――But what he had yet to discover was this: The true power that camphor tree possessed.
Eventually, Reito's days are consumed by the swirling mysteries of the camphor tree, as he is led towards an unexpected, hidden truth.

Exclusive Interview

GACKT

From “BLACK TRICK: The Lawyer Who Controls Justice”
GACKT

GACKT Makes His Fuji TV Drama Debut—His First-Ever Monday 9PM Lead Role! Playing a one-of-a-kind protagonist who excels as both a brilliant lawyer and a first-class architect, he stars in this exhilarating legal drama where fabricated “lies” become the ultimate weapon to uncover the truth! A dangerously charismatic new dark hero is here!

This completely original legal entertainment series follows a brilliant lawyer known as a genius fabricator, who uses “lies” as his weapon and stops at nothing to uncover the truth to save his clients. With the belief that if justice is crushed by “lies,” then he’ll use it to make justice win.

In today’s world, where online information and media narratives can easily turn someone into a villain overnight, what happens when an innocent person is suddenly falsely accused? What if society brands you guilty before the truth can even be heard?

A hero is someone who refuses to be swayed by public opinion, sees the true nature of their client, stands by them, and fights to prove their innocence.

In the story, the protagonist, Naoto Uramawashi refuses to believe any public judgment until he has seen the truth with his own eyes. Facing immense powers willing to fabricate anything to escape accountability, he fights back with brilliantly orchestrated fabrications of his own...?! Using lies to reclaim a truth distorted by lies.
