What is the 'Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku' anime about?
Set in Edo-era Japan, the horror fantasy series begins with the exalted “strongest ninja” of Iwagakure, Gabimaru, who is captured during an assassination attempt and sentenced to death. However, due to his rigorous training as an assassin since birth and his superhuman body, he survives every attempt made to execute him.
It is then that his executioner, a highly skilled swordswoman from the Yamada Asaemon family, Sagiri suggests he try to have the Shogunate pardon all his crimes, by traveling to Shinsenkyo, south-west of the Ryukyu Kingdom, to search for and obtain the Elixir of Immortality.
Having already lost several expedition teams, the Shogunate now sends a band of death row convicts, with each being assigned a Yamada Asaemon swordsman. To earn their freedom, the convicts must return with both the elixir and with the Yamada Asaemon alive.
