Sengoku Youko is getting fans excited with a new story promotional video and visual ahead of the release of its third and final cours on October 9. The promotional video features the insert song “Sekidei” by MindaRyn and the ending theme song “Banri Ikkū” by Rainy. The ending theme song is inspired by the Japanese tome Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi, emphasizing the theme of perseverance in achieving goals.
The series is being produced by WHITE FOX, with Masahiro Aizawa directing and Jukki Hanada handling the scripts. Aizawa, known for his work in various anime titles, brings his expertise to the project, while Hanada, famous for his work on Steins;Gate, is responsible for the compelling storyline. Yousuke Okuda is credited with character design for the series.
Sengoku Youko follows the story of Tama, a katawara who loves humans and is determined to protect them from evil forces, even if it means fighting against her own kind. Her brother Jinka, on the other hand, harbors hatred towards humans despite being one himself. The siblings are accompanied by a timid swordsman named Shinsuke, who seeks to become stronger through their journey.
Originally serialized in Monthly Comic Blade magazine in 2007, the manga concluded in 2016 after gaining popularity among readers. Creator Satoshi Mizukami, also known for works like Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer and Planet With, has crafted an engaging narrative that resonates with fans.
