List of Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan episodes
The anime television series Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan, produced by Studio Deen, is based on the manga series of the same name written and illustrated by Hiroshi Shiibashi. The series is directed by Junji Nishimura with Natsuko Takahashi as scriptwriter and Mariko Oka as character designer. Kohei Tanaka composed the series' music. The series follows Rikuo Nura, a human by day and a yōkai by night, as he is destined to become the Third Heir of the Nura Clan. With the help of friends and allies, Rikuo must stop various opposing factions from usurping his position.
