Thermae Romae

Lucius is a Roman architect whose designs aren't appreciated. He couldn't begin to imagine the strange adventure that awaits him.

Lucius starts to consider adding private baths to the floorplan of homes. As if on cue, he is whisked off to the private bathroom of an elderly man in Japan. Lucius's ideas and designs have caught the eye of Emperor Hadrian. On this journey to Japan, he winds up in a bath department store.

Lucius is sent to the base of Mt. Vesuvius, where a new hot spring has been discovered. He slips on a wet rock, and winds up in a hot spring village in Japan.

Marcus goes to see Lucius and finds him in a deep depression. A trip through a cauldron to Japan snaps him out of it, but not in the way he expected. Emperor Hadrian orders Lucius to build a new public bathhouse. While reflecting on it's design, he winds up in a Japanese water park.
