BRAVE10 is a manga series by Kairi Shimotsuki, serialized in Media Factory's Comic Flapper from 2006 to 2010.

An anime adaptation by Studio Sakimakura and TMS Entertainment aired from January 2012[3] to March 2012.

The narrative unfolds during the Warring States era, approximately one year prior to the pivotal Battle of Sekigahara.

Kirigakure Saizo, an Iga ninja embarking on a quest for his life's purpose, encounters Isanami, a shrine maiden under attack by assassins.

Isanami, having survived the temple's destruction by Tokugawa Ieyasu's forces, embarks on a journey to Shinshu, seeking refuge with Sanada Yukimura.

Amidst the ongoing battles, the enigmatic power concealed within Isanami awaits its imminent awakening.

Saizo was a cold, efficient ninja who killed many people, but later changed after he met Isanami, who believed in him.

Though she often plays a damsel in distress because of her kushi mitama, she regrets making people hurt because of her and decides to run away.

Ana encourages her, reminding her that strength comes in different shapes, boosting her confidence to become one of Yukimura's braves.

He seems to possess the power to battle by demonstrating the small duel between him and Date Masamune.

Because she wishes to return honor to her family, Hanzo is able to trick her and makes her his pawn, forcing her to betray Yukimura and the braves.

He once kidnapped Isanami because he wanted to destroy kushi mitama, which was said to be able to quell the chaos in the world.

Later, due to his greed and arrogance in thinking that he could tame the pure darkness, his right hand was devoured by Isanami.

Mamiko Ikeda is in charge of the scripts, Yukiko Ban designed the characters, and Seikou Nagaoka composed the music.
