The Elusive Samurai
The Elusive Samurai streams on Crunchyroll and Netflix. A stylish, gorgeously animated historical adventure from CloverWorks, it follows a young noble whose greatest weapon isn't the sword — it's his uncanny gift for running away and surviving.
About
When his clan is betrayed and slaughtered, a small, sheltered heir survives only because he's freakishly good at fleeing — slipping through gaps no pursuer can follow. Taken under the wing of a mysterious priest, he sets out to reclaim what was stolen, turning his talent for evasion into a genuine strategy for war. It's a coming-of-age revenge story with a distinctive art style and a hero who wins by refusing to die.
