Synopsis
This is not history as we know it. The year is 1600. Ten years have passed since Oda Nobunaga unified the whole of Japan. When Nobunaga realizes he is nearing the end of his life, he announces that he will hand over the reins of power to whoever brings him the strongest warrior. The generals, whose dreams of conquering the country had been crushed, put up their own strongest warriors and aim to become the king of the country! (Source: K Manga)

@Absurdo_N Can't believe they gave the Fate treatment to Kotaro when not even Fate itself did.

@FabGinger13 Your slideshow piece of shit does not look better than an anime that works better as CGI and has actually good animation, choreography, and even did some fights better than the manga.

Seems like it would fit well on Netflix alongside Baki and Kengan Ashura.
