Synopsis:

The anime unfolds in the tumultuous landscape of Warring Countries Japan, a period defined by relentless conflict. Following the defeat of Oda Nobunaga, the power vacuum fuels ongoing battles between the forces of Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin at the strategically important Kawanakajima. Amidst this widespread warfare, the narrative focuses on a pivotal confrontation between two prominent figures: one associated with azure hues, the other with crimson, whose intertwined fates lead them to an inevitable duel. The fragile balance of power is further threatened by the arrival of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who aims to consolidate Nobunaga's ambitions and potentially reshape the nation through a large-scale military campaign against the combined armies of Takeda, Uesugi, and Date. The series explores themes of destiny, ambition, and the consequences of unchecked power within a richly detailed historical setting.
