Gakuen Basara: Samurai High School

2018 · 1 season

A loud, silly romp where historical warlords brawl as high-schoolers, all cartoonish rivalry and zero stakes.

How it feels: Absurd, campy, light and satirical. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Power, rebellion, ambition, friendship
Content: Strong violence. Mild gore, sexual content and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
