Eight Clouds Rising
Eight Clouds Rising (Japanese: 八雲立つ, Hepburn: Yakumo Tatsu) is a Japanese shōjo manga series by Natsumi Itsuki. It won the 21st Kodansha Manga Award for shōjo. It was adapted in 1997 into an OVA series.
Kuraki Fuzuchi is a handsome and quiet young man who has immense psychic powers and sword skills. He meets Takeo Nanachi, a college student with similar powers.
The story opens with Nanachi traveling to a small shrine in the mountains to purify his deceased grandfather's sword in a festival that only occurs every 49 years. There he meets Kuraki and later accidentally stumbles upon Kuraki's initiation ritual as a Shaman. From there on, their lives are inexplicitly intertwined as they encounter ghosts, spirits, demons, and other characters with supernatural powers while the author provides a parallel running story depicting their previous life.
In the ancient Izumo era, the seven sacred swords were forged by the blacksmith Tsukamoto Tomohiko for the priest Manashi. For a long time, they protected the barrier that sealed away the grudge of Susanoo in Ikuya, but during the war, all of them were stolen except for Kagutsuchi. However, the train they were on was hit by an air raid in Osaka and torn apart.
Yakumo Tatsu: Arata (八雲立つ 灼; "Eight Clouds Rising: Burning") is a sequel to the original series that began serialisation on February 28, 2018. It has 11 volumes published (as of September 5, 2025)
The Yakumo Tatsu OVA is composed of two volumes. It is licensed in North America by Media Blasters. The English DVD was released on August 17, 2004.
