Touken Ranbu Kai Synopsis:
Yamanbagiri Kunihiro, who almost caused the complete destruction of his unit, decides to abdicate his vassal position at his own request. Heshi Kiri Hasebe is named the new vassal by his master, Saniwa, but he is still not satisfied with it. Hasebe, now under Saniwa's orders, begs for Yamanbagiri Kunihiro to be reinstated into his unit and, together with Tsurumaru Kuninaga, Shokudaikiri Mitsutada, Doutanuki Masakuni, Ookurikara and others, they head off to the Battle of Bitchu Takamatsu Castle. While Hashiba Hideyoshi and his allies, including Kuroda Kanbee, build a dam to flood Bitchu Takamatsu Castle, at the same time, Akechi's army searches for Nobunaga's head in Honnoji Temple.
In the intertwining of these stories, will they find the answers they are looking for? This is the story of the vassals, a narrative that is inherited and repeated.
Finally, the franchise previously inspired the anime Katsugeki .
