Laughing Under the Clouds (Manga)	comment	Laughing Under the Clouds (Donten ni Warau) is a manga created by Kemuri Karakara which ran in Monthly Comic Avarus from 2011 to 2014. In October 2014, it received a 12-Episode Anime adaptation by Dogakobo, that was quickly picked up by Funimation.It's the eleventh year of the Meiji Era (1878), and Japan is on the brink of the modern age, a potpourri of Western influences and traditional leanings. A prohibition against carrying swords has been declared by the government and the samurai have disappeared, resulting in skyrocketing crime rates and overflowing prisons.The solution? Gokumonjo, a giant island stronghold in the middle of Lake Biwa in Shiga Prefecture, which is also known for its perpetually cloudy skies. You see, there's a tale that says it's been like that for the past 300 years, and that such weather is an omen of great disaster...Anyway, the Kumo family of Cloud Shrine has been tasked with ferrying convicted criminals across the lake to their final destination, a duty that currently lies in the hands of three brothers; Tenka, Soramaru and Chutaro, aided by their resident freeloader, Kinjo Shirasu.With this as its backdrop, the main story revolves around the search for the mysterious vessel of a legendary monster, the so-called Orochi, said to reincarnate every 300 years in the lands around Lake Biwa and cause unimaginable destruction. Various factions seek the vessel, either to destroy it, protect it, or use it for their own gain, and the Kumo brothers are prime suspects due to their family's prolonged history of enmity towards the Orochi.There are two prequels, of sorts, set 600 and 300 years before Donten ni Warau respectively, as well as an additional volume: Utakata ni Warau explains a lot of the Orochi's background, how it can be sealed and which families are involved, as well as introducing the love story between Hirari and Botan; it consists of Chapters 2 and 3 of the main manga. Rengoku ni Warau is a spin-off manga set 300 years after Utakata and 300 years before Donten. It revolves around Ishida Sakichi, a young man on a mission who encounters the mischievous heads of Cloud Shrine, twins Baren and Okuni. Donten ni Warau Gaiden features chapters about what happens after the main manga ends, as well as flashbacks, e.g. about Shirasu's past. An anime movie adaptation of this sequel was announced in March 2017, released in cinemas in Winter 2017 and produced by Wit Studio.

Laughing Under the Clouds (Manga) / int_10a51060	comment	Dress-Coded for Your Convenience: It's easy to discern who belongs to whom based on the character design. The Kumo brothers have a black/red theme going on and all wear a black jacket with the family crest. The Fuma palette is white/purple/black and their business outfits all look pretty much the same. Botan has her own pink/purple theme. The Yamainu all wear a dark blue uniform, complete with Commissar Caps, and earthy hair colours.

Laughing Under the Clouds (Manga) / int_14c791fb	comment	Conflicting Loyalty: Averted. Tenka, who had had grand dreams of changing the country for the better, but then had to leave the Yamainu to take care of his younger brothers, claims to not having been conflicted about it and to consciously have chosen his brothers over the nation. And then invoked with Shirasu, with whom it's left unclear until the very end on purpose whether he was conflicted about betraying the Kumo brothers. He claims to only ever have had the revival of the clan in mind, but his facial expressions and actions can be interpreted otherwise. There's also an instant where Abeno Sosei calls Ashiya Mutsuki out on possibly having conflicting loyalties, but the latter claims that while their families might have a history of enmity, his sole personal loyalty lies with the Yamainu.

His brother, the person he's lived for all this time, is dead; the Orochi is defeated, his clan decimated; and he cannot go back to the Kumo Shrine, which he might or might not have considered his home. He also is the closest thing the series has to a designated villain. However, with his Hidden Depths, it's almost impossible to see this as a good thing to happen. In the main manga it's left unclear whether he actually dies, however Gaiden shows that he survives but returns to the Fuma permanently.

Laughing Under the Clouds (Manga) / int_6b2b3b59	comment	The Reveal: The story runs on big reveals: When Soramaru finds out who killed his parents — the prisoner with the fox mask, aka Fuma Kotaro... And then who really did it. Shirasu, also aka Fuma Kotaro. What the prisoner with the fox mask was really doing in Gokumonjo. Tenka being a proxy Orochi, due to experiments conducted on him by the government. What the deal with the Kumo family swords is. 300 years ago, the Orochi swallowed the spell that could seal it as well as the swords, which melded together within its body, so now the swords can be used to separate the Orochi from the vessel. For manga readers, after reading the Utakata ni Warau chapters, there's Botan being reincarnated as Chutaro's teacher and Hirari also being reincarnated as a policeman. Their first appearances in the anime aren't particularly significant as their importance isn't known at those points.

He goes as far as threatening Botan with a knife just to make his point about not harming any of the brothers. Subverted when it's revealed that it was all an act on Shirasu's part. Perhaps. Hirari fell for Botan as a child because she treated him nicely and like a human being, unlike others did at the time. It does become stalkerish, and Hirari refuses to accept Botan's "no" on the matter and follows her so loyally that he is even reborn again and again until they meet once more and Botan finally admits she's also got feelings for him.

Also due to Shirasu killing his father which didn't sit well with her. Sosei had a good serving of that, too, having been raised in isolation thanks to being a potential vessel for the Orochi.

It's revealed much earlier in the anime, which reduces the impact. Done again (for the audience only though) in the Gaiden flashback where Shirasu and his twin's true names are revealed. Turns out they were never really both Koutaro and just carried the title together. Their real names are Isuke and Isame.

Also in Gaiden, she offers to accompany and take care of Tenka during his travels, and he agrees to it. Sosei even basically calls him a "henpecked husband" afterward. Nishiki and Soramaru, starting with their exchange before he leaves the prison and escalating further when he offers her a place at his home. Soramaru shows concern for her wellbeing (physical and mental/emotional) while Nishiki often blushes around him and follows him around. In Gaiden, she (tries to) make food for him and he comments how nice she looks with a flower in her hair.

Laughing Under the Clouds (Manga) / int_e8b295de	comment	Shirasu's very protective of the Kumo brothers due to having been saved by Tenka from bleeding to death and being taken in by the brothers in the past when everyone else wished him dead because he's a ninja of the Fuma clan. He goes as far as threatening Botan with a knife just to make his point about not harming any of the brothers. Subverted when it's revealed that it was all an act on Shirasu's part. Perhaps.
