Orochi, the Eight-Headed Dragon

In an age where celestial deities intertwine with mortal ambition, the realm of ancient Yamato teeters on the edge of myth and turmoil. The story opens on a fractured empire haunted by prophecy and rivalry, its grandeur reflected in towering shrines, mist‑cloaked mountains, and seas that whisper of forgotten gods. A lingering sense of awe and unease pervades the landscape, hinting at forces far older than any throne.

At the heart of this world stands Prince Yamato, a young royal whose fiery temperament hides a volatile power that could either forge a new destiny or bring ruin. After a moment of tragic impulse forces him into exile, he is thrust onto a path of self‑discovery that demands both discipline and inner peace. The exile isolates him in wild lands where ancestral spirits linger, and the very air seems charged with the promise of redemption.

Guiding him is the enigmatic priestess Oto, whose quiet strength and deep connection to the sacred rites of the land provide both counsel and companionship. Their bond forms against a backdrop of ancient rituals, moonlit groves, and the ever‑present whisper of the divine. Together they embody the clash between mortal resolve and the ethereal realm, each step of their journey echoing the cadence of old legends.

Looming over their quest is an ominous presence: an evil god who has taken the terrifying shape of a colossal hydra, threatening to engulf the world in darkness. This looming menace casts a shadow across the empire, turning every sunrise into a fragile hope. As Prince Yamato and Oto set out to confront the looming disaster, the film promises a sweeping, myth‑laden adventure where honor, power, and destiny intertwine.
