Anime Streaming Announcement: Haigakura Coming to OceanVeil
Exciting news awaits anime enthusiasts as the awaited television adaptation of Shinobu Takayama's beloved manga, Haigakura, is set to start streaming on OceanVeil. With its premiere slated for February 20 at 6:00 p.m. EST, fans worldwide are gearing up for this immersive journey into the world of fantasy and action.
The journey of Haigakura began in Japan back in October 2024, captivating audiences with its enthralling narrative. However, the eighth episode faced a temporary halt in November of the same year, giving the creators the time needed to ensure the series' quality remained top-notch. Devoted viewers eagerly welcomed the rebroadcasting of the initial six episodes weekly, leading up to the anime's restart in July 2025. The airing of the eighth episode marked the continuation of the sensational saga in August 2025.
Audiences across different platforms are in for a treat as Haigakura will be available on various streaming services. Amazon Prime Video will be offering the series in select regions, while Tubi and the YouTube channel for It's Anime! are set to bring the action to the screens of viewers in the United States and Canada. Additionally, those in specific territories can catch the series on Anime Onegai, ensuring a global reach for this captivating tale.
REMOW, the esteemed production house behind Haigakura, offers a glimpse into the story, promising a riveting adventure filled with mystery and ambition. Following the protagonist, Ichiyo, a kashi on a quest to recover her past and rescue her captured family, viewers are led into a realm where immortals and humans coexist on the brink of collapse. As Ichiyo and her companion Tenko embark on a quest to unravel the 'Four Perils,' the essence of salvation for their world, audiences are in for an unforgettable experience.
The exceptional talent behind the anime includes Junichi Yamamoto directing the series, while Yū Murai and Masaki Satō contribute to the scripting and character design, respectively. The musical score, a vital component in capturing the essence of the narrative, is crafted by Yuki Kurihara, with MADKID and Hikaru Makishima lending their talents for the opening and ending theme songs.
Notably, Takayama's enthralling storytelling doesn't end with Haigakura. Having serialized the manga in Ichijinsha's Zero-Sum Ward magazine since 2008, the series continued its legacy on the Zero-Sum Online platform after the magazine's closure in 2015. With 17 volumes and over 1.3 million copies in circulation, Takayama's creations have undoubtedly left a lasting impact on manga and anime enthusiasts.
As we eagerly await the arrival of Haigakura on OceanVeil, the anime community is abuzz with anticipation, gearing up to embark on this magnificent adventure that promises action, fantasy, and above all, an unforgettable journey into the world of Haigakura.
