About HAKYU HOSHIN ENGI

Meet HAKYU HOSHIN ENGI (覇穹 封神演義), an adventure, fantasy and supernatural anime by C-Station (2018). Here is the premise in a nutshell. The premise: A once thrived realm, Yin—now governed by an evil hermit, Dakki, and her party—is in a chaotic status with its people suffering Dakki’s oppressions. Seeing this, The Hermit Band took it seriously and planned a "Houshin Plan" which is assigned to an apprentice hermit, Taikoubou, who gathered partners, captured and sealed all evil hermits, and planned to establish a new domain.

From there, on the other hand, the strongest and a Yin- royal hermit, Bunchuu, stood up against Taikoubou to protect the old realm with all his might. Thus, the death fight among invincible hermits starts...

As an adventure title, exploration, new locations and a steady sense of momentum drive the story. Taikoubou (Kenshou Ono) and Suupuushan (Takahiro Sakurai) are two of the characters you will meet early. This one is best suited to anyone who enjoys travel-the-world storytelling. With 23 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
