THERMAE ROMAE HC (2025)

"This surprise bestseller in the Japanese market has been an incredible success story and has spawned a major motion picture! A historical comedy highlighting history's most passionate bath-lovers: the ancient Romans and the modern Japanese! When Roman architect Lucius is criticized for his 'outdated' thermae designs, he retreats to the local bath to collect his thoughts. Slipping into the warm water, Lucius is suddenly caught in the suction and dragged through the drainage at the bottom of the bath! He emerges coughing and sputtering amid a group of strange-looking foreigners with the most peculiar bathhouse customs - over 1,500 years in the future in modern-day Japan!"
