About Gakuen Basara: Samurai High School

Looking for background on Gakuen Basara: Samurai High School (Gakuen Basara)? This action, comedy and school series by Brain's Base (2018) starts out like this. At its core: A heated fight is once again revving up at Basara Academy between baseball star Masamune Date and soccer ace Yukimura Sanada. What's more, ever since learner council chairman Hideyoshi Toyotomi received a suspension, leaving the seat up for grabs, a host of class "warlords" have become embroiled in a quest for supreme ability.

Another thread: Amid Ieyasu Tokugawa's appeals to bonds of kinship and Mitsunari Ishida's fervor to defeat him, who will wrest ultimate control of the domain in "troubled" times?

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. This one is best suited to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights.
