Musha-e, derived from the Japanese term for 'pictures of warriors,' is a distinct genre within ukiyo-e woodblock prints. Musha-e focuses on warriors and samurai drawn from Japanese history, legends, and classical literature. Typical themes include the Genpei War (1180-1185), the Sengoku or Warring States period (c. 1467-1615), and later historical conflicts. Even prints depicting the 1877 Satsuma Rebellion, often called 'The Last Samurai,' are classified as musha-e.

Similiar to european art like the greeks and romans, Musha-e celebrated masculine prowess and tradition with a mythological flair.

Musha-e pictures also heavily influenced the Bara/gei-komi genre with both showcasing hyper-masculine men with well developed muscles, body and facial hair and violent scenarios.
