Illustrated and written by Shinobu Ohtaka, Orient is a Japanese manga that was serialized in Kodansha’s Weekly Shonen Magazine. It was eventually transferred to Bessatsu Shonen Magazine in 2021. A.C.G.T decided to adapt the series into an anime and made its premiere on January 6, 2022.

The story happened during the Sengoku period. It follows Musashi, a 15-year-old boy who was born with a certain power. That time, Japan is ruled by demons, and samurai are categorized as taboo. Musashi knows this so he decided to blend in the society as a miner. Everyone believed that Oni is their savior but they didn’t know that they were brainwashed. Only Musashi knows the truth that’s why he decided to confront the demons.
