Chiruran 1/2, a comedy spinoff of the samurai series Chiruran: Shinsengumi Requiem, has arrived on Crunchyroll with both English dub and subtitles. The 12-episode series offers a more relaxed take on the Shinsengumi, focusing on the everyday lives of its warriors.
Produced by LandQ studios, the anime adapts Hashimoto Eiji and Umemura Shinya's manga. It presents a chibi-style take on historical figures, blending slapstick humor with its samurai setting. The series is a complete 12-episode run, making it suitable for a weekend watch.
While the parent manga is Chiruran: Shinsengumi Requiem, this series leans heavily into its comedic and chibi elements, offering a lighter experience than its more serious source material.
