Based on the manga created by Shingeru Mizuki ( all rights belong to him and Toei Animation ) , It's a new take to this fictional universe ( that means that this story is not tied with the 2018 anime or the previous ones ) when we follow Gegege No Kitaro in his first moments as protector of humans and peaceful Yokais against dangerous Yokais when he also meets his important ally and will fight a old enemy from centuries ago.
