The anime series is an adaptation of the manga by Satoshi Mizukami (Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer, Planet With), which ran in Mag Garden’s Monthly Comic Blade from December 28, 2007 to May 20, 2016. A total of 17 tankobon volumes were released during the series’ publication.
Crunchyroll is streaming Sengoku Youko and describes the synopsis as:
The world is divided into two factions: humans and monsters called katawara. Despite being a katawara, Tama loves humans and vows to protect them from evil, even if it means fighting her own kind. Her brother Jinka, however, hates humans, despite mostly being one. The siblings are joined by a cowardly swordsman named Shinsuke, who wants to learn how to become strong.
When the group uncovers a plot to experiment on humans and transform them into monsters, they vow to defeat whoever is behind it… Even if it means battling an entire army of warriors.
