Keiki has temporarily avoided the growing conflict, but anti-shogunal forces instigate widespread turmoil in the streets of Edo, using groups of rōnin.

Satsuma and Chōshū forces now move on Kyoto in force, pressuring the Imperial Court for a conclusive edict demolishing the shogunate.

Following a conference of daimyo, the Imperial Court issues such an edict, removing the power of the shogunate in the dying days of 1867.
