Bokkō (墨攻; lit. 'Mohist Attack') is a Japanese historical fiction novel written by Ken'ichi Sakemi, published in 1991. It was nominated for the 104th Naoki Prize and won the Atsushi Nakajima Memorial Prize for the 50th anniversary of his death in 1992.
A manga adaptation was serialized from 1992 to 1996, and a film premiered in 2006. Studio Ghibli considered an anime film with Mamoru Oshii as director around 1991, and animator Katsuya Kondō also created imageboards, but the plan was abandoned midway through due to a dispute between Oshii and Hayao Miyazaki.
