LeSean Thomas (Original Idea, Produce, Director)
This project contains some kind of serendipity. An African American man moved to Japan and is now working and living with the geniuses of Japanese aAnime industry. He hasis now createdting the story of an African who lived with elite samurai in Japan and became warriors. I feel fate when producing this adventure seriesof forming a team with great members of MAPPA, (music)Flying LotusDog, (main cast)LaKeith Stanfield, and other wonderful team members.

Yasuke is a charming and mysterious existence in Japanese history, and even now he keeps gaining attention from variety of media. I learned about Yasuke during Japan’s historyfor the first time long time ago. A children’s book called “Kurosuke” by Kurusu Yoshio contained interesting illustrations. I learned that Kurosuke was athe real person and it got me excited as it the best character for an adventure storyhas a wonderful personality for adventure anime.
I look forward for both old and new fans to enjoy the recreation of the man from real history.
