From time-traveling bathing stories to strange fantasy adventures.
is a series about a Roman architect named Lucius who a) is absolutely dedicated to his career as a bath house architect and is completely obsessed with bathing culture and b) is able to randomly time travel to modern-day Japan once per episode. Those two things form the crux of the show. In each episode, Lucius faces a particular problem — like designing a small personal bath or creating an entire spa town — which he solves by stealing ideas from the future.
His unparalleled skills end up catching the eye of the Roman emperor, and before you know it, Lucius is influencing an entire country, solely by building baths. The real joy of the show, though, comes from seeing how much he truly loves bathing and the excitement he feels when learning new ideas and concepts.
