so who cares if it's licensed someone will sub it no matter what why do people always asume it's the end of the world when something is licensed there will still be people who will sub it illegaly

EDIT: better summary of what it's about:

Otogizoushi takes place in the mid-Heian period (roughly 1000ad). Kyoto is ravaged by starvation and epidemic, nevertheless the lords and samurai continue their ugly strugles for political supremacy.

The Imperial Court, sympathetic towards the suffering of the people, orders Minamoto no Yorimitsu, a master archer, to find and retrieve a sacred jade cup that promises to restore peace to Kyoto. Yorimitsu, however, also falls ill due to the epidemic. His youngest sister, Lady Hikaru, decides secretely to make the journey in his place.
