Basilisk: The Ouka Ninja Scrolls has arrived on Crunchyroll, complete with an English dub and subtitles. This 24-episode series revisits the world of warring ninja clans ten years after the events of the original Basilisk, focusing on the heirs of the Kouga and Iga families.
Set in a period of supposed peace between the clans, the story explores the budding romance between Hachirou Kouga and Hibiki Iga. However, lingering resentments and differing accounts of the past threaten to reignite the ancient conflict. The series dives into themes of historical revisionism and the cyclical nature of hatred, all within a martial arts framework.
While the original Basilisk is known for its brutal and definitive conclusion, The Ouka Ninja Scrolls offers a new chapter that delves into the aftermath and the fragile peace that followed. Fans of historical action and ninja narratives will find a complete story ready for binging.
