In a near-future Japan where civilization has regressed due to nuclear war, natural disasters, and corrupt governance.
The nation fractures into three, plunging into a new Three Kingdoms era as each vies for supremacy.
Aoteru Misumi, once an obscure local bureaucrat, sets his sights on the reunification of Japan.
Armed with vast knowledge and exceptional eloquence, he steadily rises.
The legend of the man later known as the prodigious strategist begins now.

The artstyle might not be for everyone, but the premise sounds promising.
PsychoGeek2026-01-27 12:32
The art style looks interesting for sure. But I can already see the one dimension villains from the pv, and I'm pretty sure that female character in the pv is going to do nothing but die to fuel the MC's angst, which is all very cliche. We'll see.
Bavier332026-01-27 10:10
Premise sounds cool af
mr_beanoz2026-01-27 10:12
that certainly looks like zhuge liang's fan in dynasty warriors, I guess the MC's going to play a similar role as him.
Neat_Duck_86422026-01-27 10:14
Too much good shit coming out, PV looks solid
moichispa2026-01-27 10:54
It seems like an interesting premise. It could be great if the writer is skilled enough.
Knuckleheaded-beardo2026-01-28 07:52
Agreed. Stuff like ACCA 13 are engaging solely because of the writer's skill.

Looks pretty sick
Uberdragon_bajulabop2026-01-27 11:49
Wow. Love the artstyle.
NekoJack4202026-01-27 12:21
That damn Zhuge Liang and the Shu agenda!
Cao Cao was the good guy!(relatively)
Katlima2026-01-27 13:49
Okay, so after looking at it twice, the hand is in a black glove and indeed not down the back of his pants.
Relative-Account7982026-01-27 20:50
The type of story that deserves good quality animation. They better deliver.
ProfessionalRandom212026-01-27 23:19
but why three kingdom and not Sengoku? weird cross over in a story that is sent in Japan.
or its just a pun and there is no reference to three kingdom?
Knuckleheaded-beardo2026-01-28 07:50
I think the author went for the word pun and then decided to make the plot out of it. Sangoku is Sengoku but "san" (three) replacing "sen."
CoolingSC2026-01-27 23:51
I recently read the manga. This anime announcement was surprising. Im excited!
Knuckleheaded-beardo2026-01-28 07:47
Looking forward to this. How many chapters does this have? Are there any signs of it concluding soon? Does it get repetitive?
