About Peacemaker

At the center is 15 year old Tetsunosuke Ichimura, a boy whose childhood innocence has cracked under a brutal crime. He travels to the capital to locate the Shinsengumi, the famed swordsmen he believes can avenge his parents. Along the way he crosses a web of espionage and factional feuds tied to the Choshu rebels, the same killers who shattered his family. His elder brother wants him to walk away, warning that revenge can corrupt a person beyond repair. Still, the idea of justice pulls Tetsu toward a difficult choice between becoming a demon of vengeance or a Peacemaker in memory of his father.

Produced as a 2003 animated TV series created by Nanae Chrono, it features a voice cast including Jouji Nakata, Mitsuki Saiga, Yumiko Kobayashi, Junichi Suwabe and Kappei Yamaguchi. The project adapts Nanae Chrono's Shinsengumi era concept into a morally loaded drama.

Reception is modest, with a 6.3 out of 10 from 15 votes, reflecting a small, niche audience. The series threads themes of trauma and loyalty through tense encounters, asking hard questions about revenge versus peace within a brutal historical backdrop.
