Holy crap. No new details yet, but I hope it’s some Brotherhood-style remake. Whatever the case, they beter animate the Jinchu arc this time, I’ve been waiting for that one more than a goddamn decade.

So the new Kenshin release will be live action? :thud:

It’ll be released in Japan next year. I can’t imagine it’ll be any good, even with Watsuki involved. No expectations.

Actually there is a new anime in the works alongside the Live Action one.

Too bad you’ll be going through Kyoto again.

What? Why? What’s the fucking point, Kyoto was the one chunk of the original absolutely everyone loved. Where is my Jinchu arc? You know, the GODDAMN ENDING THEY NEVER ANIMATED?

I think you answered your own question.

At least we can hope that the live action one will cover Jinchu. :booster:
