Shikizakura English Sub & Dub

About Shikizakura

If you are hunting for a new action series, Shikizakura deserves a look (2021). The setup goes like this. In short: Shikizakura: where cherry blossoms are in full bloom while trees are colored with autumn leaves. In this special place, where the transient world meets the spirit world, a ritual to save humanity is about to begin…

Another thread: High school student Kakeru Miwa, by a strange turn of events, winds up being an irregular member of an ability suit team tasked with battling Oni. These Oni possess humans and try to cling to the transient world. Only the ability suit, Yoroi, which combines age-old hidden truths with the latest technology, can protect people from Oni.

As an action title, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. It will appeal most to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights.
