[ Story ]

Sequel to the spectacle-laden comedy Thermae Romae, a live action adaptation of Yamazaki Mari's popular comic. Depicts the humor arising from the contrast in time and space between bathhouses in ancient Rome and contemporary Japan. The film is the first Japanese production shot on location in Bulgaria, and was realized on a grander scale than the first film.
Roman Empire bathhouse architect Lucius (Abe Hiroshi) for some reason travels in time to contemporary Japan whenever he's stuck for new ideas. Lucius, who was working on constructing a new bathhouse, finds himself wrapped up in a conflict that divides the Roman Empire.
