"Akinaiseiden Kin to Gin" is set in the mid-Edo period and depicts the common people who work hard and use their wits to succeed in business, while incorporating a variety of customs. In Season 1, which aired in 2023, the main character Sachi (Koshiba) marries Tomozo (Leo Matsumoto), the sixth-generation owner of Gosuzuya, and begins selling "Hamahabutae" from New Year's as a desperate plan to revive the struggling Gosuzuya.
Season 2 is the "Edo Edition." It begins immediately after Season 1, with Sachi and Chizo expanding the store and realizing the dream of the previous owner of Gosuzuya, to open a store in Edo, but Sachi is hit by a series of sad events.
In the fifth episode, Sachi (Koshiba) arrives in Asakusa Tawaramachi accompanied by Tetsusuke (Yashima Norito) and Otake (Ishino Yoko).
The Gosuzuya Edo store is small, with a width of just two and a half ken, but it is a nice storefront that fulfills the dreams she and Tomozo (Leo Matsumoto) dreamed of. As they prepare to open the store, Sachi goes to see Otake and Yanagihara's second-hand clothing business. Witnessing the difference between business in Edo and Osaka, Sachi comes up with various ideas for opening the store.
On the day of the Ako Gishi raid, the Gosuzuya Edo store opens. There is a man watching the store's prosperity from afar.
