Mudano is Forced into a Defensive Battle Against Tsukuyomi... Anime "Tougen Anki" Episode 21 Synopsis & Advance Cuts Released

The synopsis and advance cuts for Episode 21 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 classic Japanese folktale "Momotaro" that every Japanese person knows as its foundation, 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 the folktale "Momotaro," and that he himself carries the blood of "oni." This is a modern-day story of the descendants of Momotaro and oni—different from the tale that begins with "Once upon a time, there lived an old man and an old woman."
