【ゆっくり解説】OVAに一大潮流を築いた?!革命的な作品‼戦国奇譚妖刀伝

Thank you for watching (^^♪ This time, I'll be introducing the revolutionary work "Sengoku Kitan: Wrath of Ninja", which can be said to have started a trend of fantasy period drama-style OVAs. This is a synopsis of "Yotoden." During the Azuchi-Momoyama period, Oda Nobunaga established his residence in Azuchi Castle and pushed forward toward conquering the country. Behind his rapid growth, it is said that terrifying, non-human entities and creatures known as the Oboro-shu are secretly operating. In order to eliminate the Kage-nin, who are seen as a hindrance to Nobunaga, three Kage-nin whose village was destroyed fight the grotesque enemies known as the Oboro-shu, and set out to defeat Oda Nobunaga, who is also likened to a demon... The series combines real events with a fantasy worldview, creating an interesting historical fantasy based on historical facts. The beautiful, life-size character designs, especially the dignified, beautiful, and cool appearance of the female protagonist, who cross-dresses for some reason, are highly popular with women, and it could be said that this beautiful protagonist and her cool male companions have been ranked first in both the male and female categories in a character popularity poll conducted by a certain OVA specialty magazine for two years. It won consecutive awards for 100 million yen (*'ω'*) This work's unique approach and style was incredibly popular, sparking a wave of similar works. It's a revolutionary work that can be said to have established the fantasy period drama genre in OVA! Due to its popularity, a three-episode compilation was released in theaters, and it's enjoyed great popularity overseas, but it hasn't yet been released on DVD in Japan... (^^; However, an HD remastered version is scheduled to be screened at the upcoming "Animan Festival," so it looks like it might be available for general purchase soon. With its high-quality animation, captivating action, grotesque creatures, and a sense of scenery, its interesting approach, and beautiful character design, it's a truly worthwhile work Σ(･ω･ﾉ)ﾉ! #SlowExplanation #SengokuKitanYotouDen #WrathofNinja #FantasyPeriodDrama #TheatricalVersion #OdaNobunaga 00:00 Opening 01:18 The story is based on the historical events leading up to Oda Nobunaga's quest to rule the country. 04:20 Synopsis 08:02 Three Kage-ninja inherit an evil sword that wards off evil and brings peace. 10:06 The slightly cowardly Oboro-shu and the creatures... 12:34 History is also intertwined with the portrayal of Nobunaga and Hideyoshi, creating a unique style. 14:22 Beautiful and serious characters add color to the work. 25:26 A stellar cast of talented voice actors. 28:06 Did the novel and elaborate setting and beautiful characters spark this work's popularity?! 29:54 The talented illustrators bring high-quality artwork to life. 33:25 Music for the creatures that adorn the work. 34:17 It hasn't been released on DVD in Japan yet, but it may be available soon...?!
