Storm The Yukishiro Family

Yukishiro family had been thriving on Kyushu island for over a hundred and fifty years. They were the descendants of an even more ancient family that presided over northern Kyushu. Being a large and blue-blooded family, it had many branches and countless offspring. Yukishiro Sa's rise to power had rubbed against the misogynistic grain of many male heirs. Prejudice and discrimination against women were still quite prevalent in Japanese traditional society.

The status of Japanese women in society was much lower than men's. There were only a very few females among the ranks of business tycoons and politicians. Nowadays, it wasn't uncommon to have a woman being one of the nation's leaders, but that was not the case in Japan.
