For fans of swordplay anime, Tenkaichi – Nihon Saikyou Bugeisha Ketteisen has just been officially announced for television, promising to take action and history fans on a thrilling journey through 17th-century Japan.
The novel, written by Nakamaru Yousuke and Azuma Kyoutarou , is set during the turbulent Sengoku period , shortly after the death of Oda Nobunaga. However, with the power vacuum left by this legendary leader, a brutal tournament between warriors erupts to decide who will next rule the country. And don't expect symbolic combat: the confrontation is real, bloody, and deadly—only the strongest will survive.
With choreographed battles and a tension-filled plot, Tenkaichi promises to combine historical drama and frenetic action in a high-quality fighting production. The proposal is clear: to show the most intense face of the struggle for power in an era where force prevailed over diplomacy.
Tenkaichi is a Japanese manga written by Yōsuke Nakamaru and illustrated by Kyōtarō Azuma. The series began publication in January 2021 in Kodansha's Young Magazine the 3rd. However, after that magazine's closure, the series found a new home in May of the same year, transferring to Kodansha's Monthly Young Magazine, where it continues its journey filled with action, storytelling, and epic battles.
