Join Charlotte, Wan Fu, Nakoruru, Galford and Tamtam as they search the feudal province of Edo questing for their lost comrade, Haohmaru, and their sworn nemesis Shirou Amakusa. Will the followers of the divine light triumph over the forces of the dark, or is the course of history destined to repeat itself? Before their hundred-year journey has ended, six samurai will prove that the only thing stronger than their holy blades is the steel of their wills!

Where it came from
Samurai Spirits 2: Asura-Zanmaden was released in 1999 as an original video animation (OVA) series based on the popular SNK fighting game franchise. Produced by the studio Ajiado, this two-part series was created to coincide with the release of Samurai Shodown 64-bit titles, serving as a companion piece that expanded upon the darker, more mythic themes of the game's lore. The project was intended to offer a cinematic narrative experience for fans who were already deeply invested in the complex, blood-feud-heavy storytelling of the series.
The animation style favored a sharp, cinematic approach that captured the high-stakes swordplay and supernatural atmosphere characteristic of the Samurai Shodown series. While the production benefited from the mature design sensibilities of the late 1990s, the series was received primarily by the dedicated gaming community as a niche supplement to the source material. It remains a notable example of 1990s video game adaptations that attempted to translate arcade action into a narrative-focused serialized format.
