The first season of Chained Soldier premiered in Japan on January 4, airing on AT-X, Tokyo MX, BS-Asahi, and MBS. HIDIVE provided streaming services for both the subbed and English-dubbed versions.
The anime’s battle fantasy unfolds in a world where a demonic gate unleashes creatures known as Shūki. A unique peach tree grants special powers—but exclusively to women. The story kicks off when Yūki Wakura, a down-on-his-luck boy, crosses paths with Uzen Kyōka, the captain of the 7th Anti-Demon Squad, who wields the peach’s magic.
