The 12-episode original anime Revenger is now available to stream on Crunchyroll, complete with an English dub. The series, which aired in Winter 2023, follows Raizou Kurima, a samurai framed for murder who joins a clandestine group of assassins known as the Revengers to exact bloody vengeance.
Produced by Nitroplus and Shochiku, the series blends historical samurai action with a dark, philosophical edge, focusing on themes of justice, revenge, and the moral ambiguity of assassination. The premise centers on Raizou's quest for retribution against the corrupt lord who manipulated him, aided by the enigmatic Yuuen Usui.
Revenger delivers a self-contained narrative, making it an ideal binge for fans of gritty historical action and morally gray protagonists. The animation, handled by Shin-Ei Animation and Shochiku, complements the mature themes and intense combat sequences.
