Kenyuu Densetsu Yaiba

Yaiba Kurogane is an energetic young boy living with his father in the heart of the wilderness, honing his swordsmanship as a means of survival. Following what appears to be an ordinary confrontation with a group of gorillas, they find themselves seeking refuge in a cargo container, unaware that it is on its way to the city.

As Yaiba begins his journey in this strange new concrete jungle, he encounters a fierce high school student named Takeshi Onimaru. Along the way, the people he meets inspire and train with him to become a true samurai. Despite being young at heart, his sword skills are matched only by his kindness to friends. While he often acts impulsively and can turn potential allies into rivals, his friends are always there to help him turn things around. Together, this unlikely group embarks on amazing adventures, meeting legendary figures from Japanese history, risking everything to save the world from an otherworldly threat.
