Yuta Yamazaki (Love Rice) is set to direct the series at CloverWorks, with Yasushi Nishitani (sub-character design, Pokémon the Movie: The Power of Us) handling character designs. Yoriko Tomita (My Dress-Up Darling) is in charge of series composition and screenplay.
The Elusive Samurai is currently being released in English by Viz Media, who describe the series thus:
After the massacre of his family by the traitor Ashikaga Takauji, Tokiyuki flees with the help of a handful of loyal retainers who have also survived the purge. One of them is Suwa Yorishige, an ally of the Hojo clan and lord of Suwa Province. The slightly odd Yorishige also claims to be clairvoyant and foretells that Tokiyuki will one day become the ruler of Japan. But for the moment, escaping from enemy territory is the priority!
