(Sengoku Jieitai 1549 (戦国自衛隊1549 Sengoku Jieitai 1549?)) or Samurai Commando Mission 1549 is a feature length film and comic book series focusing on the adventures of a modern day Japan Ground Self-Defense Force (JGSDF) element that accidentally travels to the Warring States period of Japanese history.
Both the film and manga are based on Sengoku Jieita (aka "Time-Slip", "GI Samurai", 1979), an action film which starred Sonny Chiba as the leader of a JGSDF platoon sent back to fuedal Japan.
The manga series was drawn by mangaka group Ark Performance. The scenario was written by Fukui Harutoshi, based on Ryo Hanmura's novel.
