Kodansha USA has licensed the manga in English, and they began releasing it in Spring 2024. Crunchyroll is streaming the anime, describing the story:
The Black Ships arrive in Kyoto as the shogunate stumbles toward ruin. Living amidst the chaos is Nio, a kindhearted boy on the verge of discovering his destiny. He meets two “Miburo,” Hijikata Toshizo and Okita Soji, members of the band of Mibu ronin who will later become the famous Shinsengumi. With dreams of a better world, Nio joins their fight to defend the city.
Tsuyoshi Yasuda is also known for his other manga titles, such as Days and Over Drive. Days received an anime adaptation by MAPPA, while Over Drive received an anime adaptation by studio Xebec. Yasuda also wrote the manga InspiRED, a collaboration between Kodansha and the professional football club Liverpool FC.
