''Touken Ranbu: The Movie'' (映画刀剣乱舞-継承- "Eiga Tōken Ranbu -Keishō-") is a live-action spin-off film of the free-to-play CardBattleGame game ''VideoGame/ToukenRanbu'', directed by Saiji Yakumo and written by Yasuko Kobayashi, with film distribution done by Toho and Universal Pictures.
It was released in Japan on January 18, 2019, and is notable for the actors who played the characters in the stage play reprising their roles, despite the story being set in a different continuity. Due to the success of the first film, a direct sequel was released in 2023.
The film follows a group of sword warriors, known as "Touken Danshi", as they attempt to stop an enemy faction known as the Time Retrograde Army from interfering with the Honnō-ji Incident.
