The year is 1582. Amidst the burning ruins of the Honnoji Temple stands the famous Onimusha warrior Samanosuke Akechi. Though surrounded by countless Genma demons, Samanosuke is compelled to fight on by hatred for his true enemy, the evil Nobunaga. The long-awaited final battle looms close...

Cut to the year 2004. Policeman Jacques Blanc stares on in horror as the once peaceful Paris is suddenly transformed into a nightmarish nest of Genma demons who are slaughtering civilians and soldiers one by one. Within this nightmare appears one man; a man who stands up against the evil tide of monsters.

Why has Samanosuke suddenly appeared in modern day Paris and Jacques in feudal Japan? What fate awaits these two men?
