About Peacemaker

Meet Peacemaker (PEACE MAKER 鐵), an action and comedy anime by GONZO (2003). Here is the premise in a nutshell. The setup: Although traumatized by witnessing the murder of his parents by one of the Choushuu, Ichimura Tetsunosuke's thirst for revenge lead him to desire strength. At the age of 15, Tetsunosuke approached the Shinsengumi, wanting to become one of its members.

Another thread: However, Tetsunosuke lacked the skill, mind and will to emotionlessly cut down whoever threatened peace and the Shinsengumi. Even with the support of his brother Tatsunosuke and his newfound companions of the Shinsengumi, little did Tetsunosuke know the blood and pain he would have to face being part of this historical group.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Tetsunosuke Ichimura (Yumiko Kobayashi) and Souji Okita (Mitsuki Saiga) are two of the characters you will meet early. It will appeal most to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. With 24 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.

Production & Appeal
