A Surprise Attack on the Oni's New Hideout, But... Anime "Tougen Anki" Episode 20 Synopsis & Advance Cuts Released

The synopsis and advance cuts for Episode 20 of the anime "Tougen Anki" have been released.

"Tougen Anki" is based on the manga by Yura Urushibara, which is currently serialized in "Weekly Shonen Champion" (Akita Shoten) and has surpassed 4.5 million copies in cumulative circulation. Using the folk tale "Momotaro," which every Japanese person knows, as its subject matter, the story depicts the conflict between those who carry the blood of oni and those who carry the blood of Momotaro.

Shiki Ichinose (CV. Kazuki Ura), a boy who had been living as an ordinary human, is suddenly attacked one day by a mysterious man belonging to the "Momotaro Agency." While fleeing with his adoptive father, he learns that his pursuers carry the blood of "Momotaro" from the folk tale, and that he himself carries the blood of "oni." A story of the descendants of Momotaro and oni in modern times—different from "once upon a time, there lived an old man and an old woman."
