You watch as an eagle-like monster and a nine-tailed fox fight with each other. With a flash, the demon Tenma Taro is bound by ropes and sealed away in the forbidden chamber. It seems that this is the story of an old legend. When the scene cuts to two men fast asleep in cushy chairs, a man appears and stabs one of them mercilessly. "Night night, alderman... Sweet dreams!". The seal protecting the chamber is ripped off with a smirk, revealing Tenma Taro inside... why resurrect him? Apollo Justice is on the case.
