Saturday Morning Cartoons – Ronin Warriors

Go grab your favorite spot and get comfy, as it’s our first Saturday Morning Cartoon session of the new year! WOO HOO! Let’s get to it!

This week, we’re diving in to a fan favorite show

Ronin Warriors, known in Japan by its original title Legendary Armor Samurai Troopers (鎧伝サムライトルーパー, Yoroiden Samurai Torūpā), is a Japanese anime series created by Hajime Yatate and animated by Sunrise. The television series, co-produced by Nagoya TV, aired across Japan on the All-Nippon News Network from April 30, 1988, to March 4, 1989 for a total of 39 episodes. A manga adaptation was serialized on Kodansha’s Comic BomBom from November 17, 1988 to April 5, 1990 and the chapters collected into 2 tankōbon volumes.

Talpa, the demon lord of the Netherworld and ruler of The Dynasty, is bent on conquering the mortal world. Standing against Talpa and his four Dark Warlords are the five Ronin Warriors, each in possession of mystical armor and weapons. They are assisted by Mia Koji, a young student-teacher, and a mysterious warrior-monk known only as The Ancient.


I don’t know about you, but I absolutely loved this show as a kid! I hope you enjoyed this edition of Saturday Morning Cartoons. See you back here next week for another dose!
