JUNI TAISEN：ZODIAC WAR

JUNI TAISEN: ZODIAC WAR is a TV action-thriller anime produced by Graphinica, based on the light novel by the acclaimed author NisiOisin. Twelve elite warriors bearing the names of the zodiac—including Usagi, Nezumi, Tora, Ushii, and more—are thrown into a brutal battle royale held once every twelve years, where the last one standing is granted any wish they desire. With director Hosoda Naoto at the helm and series composition by Murai Sadayuki, the series masterfully translates NisiOisin's razor-sharp storytelling into a pulse-pounding anime experience filled with tension, dark strategy, and visceral combat.

Once every twelve years, a brutal and secretive competition known as the Twelve Tournament is set into motion. Twelve warriors, each bearing the name of a zodiac sign, are brought together on a single battlefield where they must fight to the death—wagering not just their lives, but their very souls. The combatants include Usagi, Nezumi, Tora, Ushii, Sharyuu, Inounoshishi, Niwatori, Elder Tatsumi, Younger Tatsumi, Dotsuku, Hitsujii, and Uuma—twelve formidable fighters, each with unique abilities and hidden motivations. The sole survivor of this merciless battle royale will be granted one wish, with no limits placed on what that wish can be. Beneath the surface of this deadly contest lies a web of conspiracy and betrayal. With everything on the line, these warriors step onto a blood-soaked stage where only one can emerge victorious.
