The graceful capital city, ancient Kyoto.
A beautiful noble daughter was born between the emperor and his consort, Kiritsubo, who had gained his favour. That beautiful daughter is known as "Hikaru no Miya (The Princess of Light)" due to her unparalleled beauty that is likened to her casting light. The only men that are allowed to approach the beautiful princess are men chosen by the imeprial court, who are collectively known as the "Gekkou Go Kunshi (The Five Noble Men of Moonlight)." Every night, a secret rendezvous with the five men takes place, in which they read traditional Japanese poems to one another.

Play Genji Koi Emaki on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Genji Koi Emaki on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
