Yasuke is set in a war-torn feudal Japan where mechs and magic exist alongside samurai warfare. Its hero is Yasuke, a Black warrior who once served the legendary Oda Nobunaga and was renowned as the Black Samurai. He now lives quietly as a village boatman, trying to leave a violent past behind. That peace ends when a child with mysterious powers comes into his care. Dark forces and bloodthirsty warlords want the girl, and a nearby village becomes the center of conflict between rival daimyo. Yasuke has to take up his sword again to protect her and carry her to safety. The series draws on the historical figure of Yasuke, the first African samurai.
