The Story of Kijin Gento Show

Based on Motoh Nakani's popular novel, 'Kijin Gento Show' gained immense popularity even before its anime adaptation, receiving over 500 million page views on the web novel platform 'Shousetsuka ni Narou' prior to its publication. This action-packed tale unfolds from the Edo period to the present day, weaving a rich narrative that spans 170 years and depicts a compelling interaction between humans and demons.

The story is set in the eleventh year of the Tenpo era (1840), during a time when famine and chaos reign. In a remote mountain village called Kadono, siblings Jinta and Suune make their home. Raised in the village after fleeing from a mysterious past, they are cherished members of their community. As Jinta grows older, he takes on the role of a protector for a shaman known as Itsuki-hime. However, their lives take turn when Jinta encounters a strange demon in the forest who speaks of the far future.

The tale intricately weaves the fates of Jinta, his devoted sister Suune, and the shaman Itsuki-hime, who faces grave danger at the hands of malevolent spirits. As chaos ensues, the characters must confront their intertwined destinies, battling demons and discovering the profound meaning of a warrior's path.
