Senjutsu is the band's first studio album in nearly six years, following The Book of Souls (2015), marking the longest gap between two studio Iron Maiden albums. This is also their second double album, and their first studio album since Powerslave (1984) to have no songwriting contributions from guitarist Dave Murray in any way, as well as the first since Virtual XI (1998) to feature multiple songs written by bassist Steve Harris alone.
The name of the album is rendered on the right side of the cover art by the actual vertical Japanese spelling of "senjutsu", and on the left side by a font reminiscent of Japanese characters.
At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the album has an average score of 86 based on 12 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim". Wall of Sound scored the album 9/10, calling it an "epic and triumphant return for the lads... better balanced [than The Book of Souls]... with some interesting songwriting".
The album Senjutsu marks the second use of their original logotype (with the extended letters R, M and N) on its cover since The X Factor (1995), the previous one being for The Book of Souls (2015).
