I swear, this looks so much like Lady Snowblood.
Can confirm? |

Well, this looks surprisingly good. Glad to see so many promising original series for Spring (Mars Red, Godzilla, Megalobox 2...)

Mars Red is technically based on a stage play that's been made since 2015. |

No World War II in this Japan's future? Shows I've seen from this period like Senkou no Night Raid have a supernatural component that distances the story from the actual Japan of the 1930's.

Senkou no Night Raid is not really distanced from the actual Japan, though? There's a supernatural element for sure, and an original story, but that story is about the main characters averting one catastrophe (a rogue Japanese officer dropping a proto-nuke to avoid Japan being nuked in the future, as informed by a seer) only to have history go on as it happened IRL, with all the terrible things that happen later. It's one of the few fictional stories I've seen that unambiguously shows Japan as being the one behind the Mukden Incident, and it has one of the most depressing epilogues I've seen in anime (with one of the cast dead and his family deep in poverty, another lonely and aimless in life, yet another ultimately joining the rebels of the February 26 Incident in a desperation to find some "greater good" to fight for - which is by the way criticized by the show, even if the members of the rebellion we see are shown in a sympathetic light).

Susumu Kudo didn't work on Hand Shakers, even in your database he's not credited lol.

Imagine an anime being set in the 40s...
and it is NOT alternate history. |

I agree this might have something to do with the old Lady Snowblood movies.
I assume there's a revenge story at some point hidden between the alternate history premise. |
