Nippon Sangoku is Hideo Kojima’s latest anime recommendation and Prime Video’s most stylish show
Hideo Kojima, creator of Metal Gear Solid and Death Stranding, has become known in recent years for his frequent cultural recommendations beyond video game design. His latest endorsement is the anime Nippon Sengoku: The Three Nations of the Crimson Sun, now streaming on Prime Video.
The anime is based on the original manga written and illustrated by Matsuki Ikka and published by Shogakukan. The animated adaptation is produced by Studio Kafka. The series has drawn attention for its striking visual style, with Prime Video promoting it as one of the platform’s most stylish shows.
Kojima regularly shares his recommendations for films and television shows on social media, and his cultural taste carries significant influence within gaming communities and broader pop culture audiences. While his broader cultural commentary has occasionally drawn controversy, his endorsement of this particular anime appears well-founded, with the series standing out as an exceptional anime offering in its own right.
