Michan Kuradaishi is a 25-year-old woman with a passion for writing. Unfortunately for her, writing the best article or the next best-seller is a bigger challenge than she thought. After being rejected countless times and pushed to the side for someone better, Michan takes the opportunity her scientist friend Chiaki gives to her - the opportunity to time travel.
With her interest on geishas, Michan decides to time travel to Japan when more geishas roamed the country. Saying her farewells to her friends and fiancé Kenta, Michan is teleported to the era she desires. What she thought would be a nice and helpful trip turns into one of horror. She comes across prostitutes who she believed were geishas and is forced to become one of them. Luckily, Michan is rescued by a kind samurai, Hayato Watanabe, who helps her escape. Michan is later told by the samurai that she must disguise herself as a new male samurai, in order to keep hidden from those who hurt her and to give her time until she can go back home.
Throughout her days as a samurai, she meets many people, including Hayato's close friend Tadashi Otada and Hayato's love interest, beautiful maiko Yukiko. As she tries her hardest to lure of suspicion of her true identity, she finds out what it truly means to live by the Bushido Code. Along the way, she laughs, cries, finds out secrets, and becomes more refined then the person she was.
While learning about the samurai life and the geisha way of life, Michan finds herself wanting to help her new friends rather than herself. Her article and novel are important, but the experience is far beyond what she thought it would be.
