As a game aimed at female players, "Hakuoki" was all the rage when it was launched because of its exquisite and handsome game characters, the interesting and ambiguous story direction, and the auxiliary emotional lines outside the main story line. These made countless female players very excited and also pushed up the popularity of the "Hakuoki" series.

After the "Hakuoki" game became popular, "Hakuoki" soon launched an animated version, including the first season of "Hakuoki", the second season "Hakuoki Hekketsuroku", the third season "Hakuoki Reimeiroku", and the OVA "Hakuoki Setsukouroku", which were also quite popular.

The story of this live-action series is set in the turbulent period at the end of the shogunate, and depicts the rough fate of Chizuru Yukimura, a girl who comes to Kyoto in search of her father, and Shinsengumi members such as Hijikata Toshizo.
