Sengoku Musou English Sub & Dub

About Sengoku Musou

Looking for background on Sengoku Musou? This action, historical and samurai series by TYO Animations (2015) starts out like this. At its core: Toyotomi Hideyoshi is on the verge of unifying the realm, and all that remains is the Odawara Castle protected by the "Lion of Sagami" Ujiyasu Houjou. Hideyoshi's personally trained generals—Ishida Mitsunari, Katou Kiyomasa, and Fukushima Masanori—as well as Ootani Yoshitsugu, Shima Sakon, and Naoe Kanetsugu are all on the frontline of the battle.

Next up: Amidst the clash formation are the two young warriors of the Sanada household: older brother Nobuyuki and younger brother Yukimura. As the stalemate starts to break down, Sanada Yukimura rides on a lone horse into the fray. His brother follows him right after.

As an action title, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. If you count yourself among viewers who like fast, high-impact fights, put it on your list.

Production & Appeal

Animation is handled by TYO Animations, so the studio's house style defines how Sengoku Musou looks and moves on screen. Because it leans on action, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. With a 6.6/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. It aired in 2015, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
