Ushio & Tora (Japanese: うしおととら, Hepburn: Ushio to Tora) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kazuhiro Fujita. It was serialized in Shogakukan's shōnen manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Sunday from January 1990 to October 1996, with its chapters collected in 33 tankōbon volumes. The series follows the adventures Ushio Aotsuki, the son of a temple keeper, who after having reluctantly released the imprisoned powerful tiger-like monster, Tora, the two begin a journey together, fighting against supernatural beings threatening the world.

An 11-episode (including an additional episode) original video animation (OVA) adaptation, produced by Toho and animated by Pastel, was released from September 1992 to October 1993. The series was later adapted into a 39-episode anime television series by MAPPA and Studio VOLN, which aired from July 2015 to June 2016. In North America, the OVA was licensed by ADV Films in 1998, and re-released in 2003, while the anime television series was licensed by Sentai Filmworks in 2015.

Ushio & Tora won the 37th Shogakukan Manga Award in the shōnen category in 1992 and the Seiun Award in the Best Comic category in 1997. By 2015, the manga had over 30 million copies in circulation. The series has earned positive reviews for Ushio and Tora's compelling dynamics and effective blend of action and humor, though some critics found the plot somewhat simplistic. The OVA adaptation drew particular criticism for its tonal inconsistency due to graphic violence.

Story

[edit]
Main article: List of Ushio & Tora characters

Ushio Aotsuki, the son of a temple caretaker, stumbles upon Tora—a fearsome tiger-like yōkai sealed in his family's basement for five centuries by the cursed Beast Spear. This legendary weapon, wielded by Ushio's ancestor, grants enhanced abilities at the cost of the user's soul. When Ushio's accidental discovery weakens the seal, Tora's demonic aura attracts lesser monsters, forcing Ushio to fully release him despite Tora's immediate threat to devour him.

The series chronicles their contentious partnership as they battle supernatural threats across Japan, particularly the ancient yōkai Hakumen no Mono. Though Tora maintains his predatory nature, he gradually develops unexpected protectiveness toward humans. Their dynamic evolves from mutual hostility to reluctant camaraderie, with Tora adapting to modern life while concealing his growing moral compass. The Beast Spear remains both Ushio's weapon against yōkai and his protection from Tora, who secretly fights evil with more dedication than he admits.

Anime

[edit]

Charles McCarter of EX highlighted the dynamic between Ushio and Tora as the series' core appeal, praising Chikao Ohtsuka's vocal performance for Tora, "changing from frightening to hurt and offended in the blink of an eye." He likened the series to a "grown-up, supernaturally powered Calvin and Hobbes", commending its fight sequences while noting that its most memorable moments were often the quieter, comedic interactions between the leads.[59] Kevin A. Pezzano of SciFi.com similarly praised the protagonists' antagonistic relationship as the anime's standout feature, though he cautioned that its blend of action and comedy might not appeal to fans of either genre.[60] Andrew Tei of AnimeOnDVD lauded the series' humor and character dynamics, recommending it as a noteworthy title worthy of inclusion in any collection.[61]

Mike Toole of Anime Jump called the OVA "the most shounen show I've ever seen", acknowledging its "formulaic premise, sloppy character design, and fairly lackluster animation", but praising its fast-paced action scenes and slapstick comedy. However, he criticized its graphic violence as excessive, recommending it only to viewers tolerant of gore.[62] Brian Hanson (also of Anime Jump) likened the OVA to a "best of" compilation from the original manga, faulting its episodic format and lack of development for supporting characters.[63]

Barb Lien-Cooper of Sequential Tart called the series a "Japan's answer to Stanley and His Monster", praising its shift from lighthearted comedy to effective horror, though she noted its mature content made it unsuitable for young audiences.[64] Stephen D. Grant of THEM Anime Reviews called the series surprisingly compelling despite its premise, though he criticized its "gratuitous" violence.[65]

Jonathan Mays of Anime News Network (ANN) acknowledged the series' adherence to shōnen tropes but found it "genuinely funny", albeit only worth a single viewing.[66] Bamboo Dong (also of ANN) dismissed it as "mediocre" and overly repetitive, favoring similar series like Inuyasha instead.[67] Todd Ciolek (ANN) offered a more neutral assessment, calling it "not-unwatchable."[49] The Anime Encyclopedia praised the series' effective mix of supernatural action and Japanese folklore, highlighting its thematic depth and strong protagonist dynamic. While noting the adaptation's incomplete coverage of Fujita's manga, they commended its tonal versatility and the English localization from ADV Films as standout qualities among 1990s anime.[28]

Television series

[edit]

Miranda Sanchez of IGN praised the first episode's faithful adaptation of the manga's aesthetic, noting its successful blend of comedy and character dynamics. She highlighted the distinct 1990s animation qualities and the protagonists' rivalry as establishing strong series potential.[68] Stig Høgset of THEM Anime Reviews commended the series' "raw, old-timer shounen energy", praising its classic appeal despite some dated elements. Reviewing the second season, he noted its accelerated pacing and called the finale a "bittersweet, but magnificent end."[69][70] Gareth Evans of Starburst observed the tonal shift from lighthearted to serious storytelling, ultimately praising its cohesive narrative and horror elements.[71]

The Fandom Post's reviewers offered mixed perspectives. Chris Beveridge highlighted the successful modernization of classic designs,[72] while Chris Homer praised its energetic adaptation despite compression issues.[73] Brandon Varnell criticized its romantic subplots but acknowledged its shōnen appeal.[74] Gabriella Ekens of ANN compared the series to Yu Yu Hakusho and Inuyasha, praising its nostalgic execution and "remarkably well structured" plot.[75]
