OVERVIEW

The “Eto Shinpei Restoration Project” launched in Saga Prefecture on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the death of “Eto Shinpei,” an outstanding figure born in Saga.
At the time of the Meiji Restoration, a major turning point in the history of Japan, Eto Shinpei introduced, with his exceptional bird's-eye view and ability to execute, a separation of powers, universal education, equality among all four peoples,
and a democratic and fair judicial system, all of which were completely foreign to the common knowledge of the Edo period until He is known as “the man who created the backbone of Japan,” which has led us to where we are today.
He was executed at the young age of 40 for the “Saga War,” a conflict between two great causes, and his achievements are now being brought to light in an attempt to “rehabilitate” the nation.
A promotional movie featuring Naoto Takenaka, one of Japan's most famous actors, was produced.
