YAIBA: Samurai Legend is set to make waves in the anime world with a brand-new remake of the legendary manga by Gosho Aoyama. This anime follows the journey of Tetsuba Kurogane, a young man raised in the wilderness with a determination to become a true samurai.

Tetsuba's journey takes him back to Japan, where he stays with the Mine family, who have ties to his late father. Their lives take a drastic turn when Takeshi Onimaru, a kendo master, appears and challenges Tetsuba.
