天保水浒传NEO

故事发生在天保年间，日本利根川一带连年发生灾荒。当地两个恶霸为了争夺地盘，相互之间经常发生械斗。农民们既逢天灾更遭人祸，万般无奈只好纷纷逃往外地求条活路。

浪人大原幽学说服了大名村长，通过讲学的方式教育农民，开展互助活动，同时积极打击赌博行为，竟渐渐形成了一派学说。大原幽学还帮助农民在农村建立了用于开展道德教育的“改心楼”，并实行生产互助，成为早期农民协会的一种萌芽形式。

The anime is based off an old Japanese story, which in turn was inspired by the classic Chinese novel Suikoden (Water Margin).

In the original story, a large band of outlaws are given amnesty by the government to fight foreign forces and rebels. The Tenpou Suidoken version relocates the story to the Chiba Prefecture town of Tonosho, and it revolves around the chivalrous battles of Sasagawa no Shigezou and Iioka Sukegorou.
