Have you ever watched an anime and immediately thought, “Wow, this is really creepy, but why do I want to keep watching?” Well, that's how I felt when I watched Tougen Anki. This anime is no ordinary show...it successfully blends classic Japanese mythology with brutal action that makes your heart race.
A Storyline That Will Keep You Hooked
Imagine suddenly finding out that you have demon blood running through your veins. It's not just cool , but it also comes with serious consequences. That's what happened to Shiki Ichinose... our protagonist , whose life changed 180 degrees after finding out he was a descendant of Oni.
What sets this story apart from other supernatural anime is the way they raise the character's internal conflict. Shiki doesn't immediately accept his fate with open arms. Instead, he struggles, gets angry, confused, and sometimes regrets it. It's exactly like the reaction of a normal human being who is suddenly given such a heavy burden.
The conflict between clans involving blood inheritance isn't just a sweetener. Every battle has a strong reason, every enemy has a reasonable motivation. So it's not just meaningless fighting.
Characters with Soul
Shiki is indeed a temperamental main character, but that is precisely where his strength lies. He is not portrayed as a perfect or cool hero. In fact, he is like a typical teenager : emotional, stubborn, but with a strong conscience.
The supporting characters are also equally interesting. Each has a deep background and clear motivations. None of them are just there to fill out the story. Even the enemies are given enough screen time to make the audience understand their point of view...
Eye-Catching Visuals That Keep You on the Edge of Your Seat🤩!
I have to admit , the animation studio behind Tougen Anki really knows how to create action scenes that stick in your mind. The dominant blood-red color isn't just an aesthetic choice, but also a way for them to show the intensity of the emotions and conflicts that occur...
Each fight is packaged with smooth choreography and visual effects that are not excessive but still impressive. What I like most is that they don't rely solely on gore to make the scenes interesting , but really focus on the substance of the fight.
Why is this anime worth your time?
Tougen Anki successfully presents a rare combination: brutal but meaningful action, family drama that isn't over the top, and deep character exploration. If you've followed Tokyo Ghoul or Jujutsu Kaisen and like the dark atmosphere but still have a human side, this anime will definitely be to your taste.
What also impressed me was how they brought Japanese mythology to life without it feeling forced or like a mere label. The concepts of Oni and blood inheritance are smoothly integrated into the modern plot.
Bottom Line: Tougen Anki isn't just your average action anime that relies on spectacular fights. It has soul, it has a message, and most importantly—it has a unique way of making you think while enjoying a show that is definitely worth watching. If you're looking for an anime that can give you a complete viewing experience, this is the answer.
Trust me, after watching the first episode, you'll immediately understand why this anime deserves to be on your watchlist.

I think the plot of the story bears some resemblance to the anime Blue Exorcist, which I really liked.
Thanks for the review, I think it would be worth giving it a try.
Yeah, I also feel a vibe similar to Blue Exorcist, especially regarding blood conflicts and family burdens. The difference is that Tougen Anki is just more brutal 😅. Thanks for stopping by, hope you like it when you watch it later 🙌✨
I'm watching this anime and it's good. The only thing I criticize it is the animation with its excess of CGI. In general it's very good but when the fights start they exaggerate with the 3D and it doesn't look good. Anyway it's entertaining to watch.
Yeah, I agree, I also feel like the CGI is a bit excessive, so it looks unnatural during the fight scenes. But I totally agree, the story is addictive despite the flaws in the animation 🔥. Hopefully it will be smoother in the future! 🙌
