"BATTLE FOR JUSTICE"

Here at ART OF WAR, we have been developing original Japanese characters for many years based on the theme of “Conflict” .
We introduce unparalleled characters to the world that are a realistic portrayal of authenticity and convey a deep spiritual nature.
We reflect on the meaning of “Justice” through a “Battle for Justice”.
SAMURAI ANIMALS™ is based on the concept of “Justice” delivering a message that, unlike most character-based licensing properties,
is a distinctive one that is set to impress many people.
SAMURAI ANIMALS™ is a combination of two important elements -“ Samurai” and “animal characters”- into a single concept.
The possibilities for SAMURAI ANIMALS™ are countless and the potential is infinite.



SAMURAI ANIMALS
SAMURAI ANIMALS™ is a fantasy story which centers on the Twelve Animals of the Zodiac who fight to establish a kingdom.
The twelve Samurai Animals of the Zodiac are divided into two warring armies, with each side fighting for their own version of justice. People can identify themselves with a particular animal character depending on their year of birth.
An Original Story Featuring Characters Based the Twelve Animals of the Zodiac.
The Twelve Signs of the Zodiac, with each sign symbolized by an animal, is a millennia-old concept predominantly followed in East Asian cultures. Each animal represents one birth year in the single twelve-year cycle.
People in many countries, stretching from Asia including Japan, China, Korea, Taiwan and Russia, to Eastern Europe, tend to believe they have a strong attachment to the animals associated with their own birth years.
Moreover, in western countries, the Zodiac has a long history and people believe there is at least one animal in the Zodiac that matches their personality or human nature. Astrological-based belief is a notion that has a significantly high growth potential.
We have over 20 years of accumulated character licensing know-how.
SAMURAI ANIMALS™ is our originally developed content that merges the worldwide popularity of samurai with the universal appeal of the twelve animal signs of the Zodiac.
Our rich background and experience of content creation around the formative beauty of the Sengoku Period formed the basis of SAMURAI ANIMALS™.
Our aim is to create battle-themed original Japanese character content as never seen before. The content encompasses authentic and realistic depictions with a deep spirituality that we can promote to the world. We are a licensor, but we also can work from a licensee’s perspective because of our twenty plus years of expertise in three-dimensional character figures production and experience in working well with other companies in the licensing field.
