“Rurouni Kenshin” is one of the most famous manga and anime brands in history, and despite the controversy surrounding its author’s actions, the truth is that the franchise has managed to stay alive to the point of having announced a new anime. Indeed, for months we know that This 2023 will see the light of a new anime “Kenshin” which will adapt ALL content from the original manga. Today, after a short time of silence, they arrived news of his premiere which were most needed.
Rurouni Kenshin’s anime finally has its premiere this year
So, I’ll leave you with everything you need to consider about the premiere of “Rurouni Kenshin” (via AniTrendz):
- It has been officially confirmed that the new anime of Rurouni Kenshin will be released in July 2023..
- Is there a release date for the anime? Well no. However, this will most likely start in the first half of the month.
- Is the duration of the anime known? Well neither, but considering the original anime had +90 episodes, Personally, I find it hard to see the anime ending in a single season or part. For this reason, I would expect more sequels to what we will see debuting to be announced later.
- Another aspect to consider about the new Rurouni Kenshin anime is that it will be directed by LIDE FILMS. More recently, the studio has been working on adaptations like Tokyo Revengers season 2 or the anime Call of the Night.
I have to say (as a final contribution) that the original “Kenshin” anime was the one that fascinated me. I’ve seen several samurai anime to date and this is by far one of the most special and iconic that I can remember, both for its own characters and also for the way it handled its scenes of action. I don’t know how the LIDENFILMS version will be released, but I hope that at least he manages to live up to a franchise that has been of great importance in the past.
