" UNBOUND (Berabou)" is the 64th taiga drama, depicting the life of Tsutaya Juzaburo(or "Tsutajyu" for short), who is said to have built the foundations of Japan's media industry and pop culture.

In the fifth episode, Tsutaju (Yokohama) is disappointed when he is not accepted into the stockbrokerage. Later, he is asked by Urokogataya (Kataoka Ainosuke) to become his personal inspector, but he hesitates.
Meanwhile, Tsutaju meets Suharaya (Kotaro Satomi) through Gennai's (Ken Yasuda Kotaro Satomi Watanabe). The man, who knows Karamaru's past, threatens Karamaru and gradually corners him.
Then, at the Nakatsugawa mine, Gennai and his men are verbally abused by investors, and Heichi Tosaku (Kimura Ryo) is taken hostage... and so the story unfolds.
