Every version of Soul Land — the films & series, compared across media.
Tang San's journey — from stealing forbidden knowledge to dying and being reborn into a world of soul masters — has inspired both an animated TV series and a companion film. Soul Land follows that hero across lifetimes, while Soul Land: Sword Master turns to an earlier crisis: a swordmaster tasked with shielding a child as the Soul Temple moves against the soul master realm. Together they span TV and film.
Yes. Alongside the animated TV series Soul Land (2018), there is Soul Land: Sword Master (2025), an animated film set in the same universe depicting events set two decades before the series' climactic conflict.
There are two screen versions: the TV series Soul Land (2018), which follows Tang San's reincarnation and rise as a soul master, and the film Soul Land: Sword Master (2025), a standalone prequel story.
Start with the TV series Soul Land (2018), which introduces Tang San and the soul master world. Soul Land: Sword Master (2025) is a prequel film best appreciated with that foundation in place.
