Fan Art of the Starter Blades and Mikazuki Munechika from Touken Ranbu - Celebrating 10 Years!
Touken Ranbu is a browser game where players command sword spirits, known as Touken Danshi, to battle enemies who aim to alter history. Developed by DMM GAMES and Nitroplus, it was first released in 2015. Players take on the role of a Saniwa, who can awaken emotions in inanimate objects. Leading a team of anthropomorphized versions of famous swords, they must battle to protect history as we know it. With its captivating character designs and rich historical background, Touken Ranbu quickly gained widespread popularity and expanded beyond the game into anime, stage plays, musicals, and more.
In celebration of the game’s 10th anniversary, we’re featuring fan art of the five Starter Blades that players first receive—Kiyomitsu Kashuu, Kanesada Kasen, Kunihiro Yamambagiri, Kotetsu Hachisuka, and Yoshiyuki Mutsunokami—as well as Munechika Mikazuki, who serves as the face of the series.
Enjoy this tribute to the original swords that began this franchise’s incredible journey 10 years ago!
