📖 SYNOPSIS
Five hundred years prior, a fearsome monster was sealed away by a samurai using the “Beast Spear.” The story begins when Ushio Aotsuki, a middle school student, discovers this very monster in a hidden cellar beneath his family's temple. Unsealing the monster attracts other supernatural creatures to the temple, forcing Ushio to release the monster to defend himself. Ushio names the monster “Tora,” and the two reluctantly form an alliance. They must now work together, with Ushio wielding the Beast Spear, to combat the various spirits and demons that threaten their home and the surrounding area. The series explores themes of unlikely partnerships and the struggle against the supernatural.
