About Legend of the Millennium Dragon

Here is what Legend of the Millennium Dragon (鬼神伝) is about, retold in plain terms: an action and supernatural anime by Studio Pierrot (2011). In short: A 15-year-old boy travels back in time —over 1,200 years ago to the Heian period— and faces a war between oni (demons) and humans in the former Japanese capital of Kyoto.

As an action title, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Kenshou Ono voices Jun Tendou, one of the main characters driving the story.

If you count yourself among viewers who like fast, high-impact fights, put it on your list. The run is 1 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with Studio Pierrot, which means the visual identity of Legend of the Millennium Dragon follows that studio's craft. The action focus matters here: fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. With a 6.1/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. Voice casting, including Kenshou Ono as Jun Tendou, adds to the appeal for fans who follow seiyuu. It aired in 2011, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
