Synopsis:

Set in the medieval kingdom of Pars, *Arslan Senki* chronicles the formative journey of Prince Arslan as he navigates a court fractured by political intrigue and personal neglect. A privileged upbringing contrasts sharply with the realities of poverty and oppression prevalent throughout the land, yet Arslan maintains an unwavering belief in a more just future. This optimism is abruptly shattered by the invasion of Lusitania, thrusting him into a desperate struggle for survival and the fate of his dynasty.

The series follows Arslan's evolving leadership as he gathers a diverse band of loyal companions to aid him in reclaiming his kingdom. He confronts not only external enemies fueled by prejudice, but also internal betrayals and difficult choices. *Arslan Senki* explores themes of identity, responsibility, and the resilience of hope amidst conflict, offering a thoughtful portrayal of war's impact on both individuals and nations.
