During the recent Aniplex Online Fest, the Japanese entertainment company revealed their new original anime project, Inherit The Winds (Kaze wo Tsugumono).
Set in the Bakumatsu era in Kyoto, the anime follows an amnesiac soldier who is aided by the famous Shinsengumi member Soji Okita. Soji Okita names this anonymous man “Junsuke Tachikawa”, and hence, Junsuke’s new life begins amidst the Mibu soldiers.
