#Manga NEWS! J-Stars Victory Vs.

Here's a trailer of the upcoming J-Stars Victory Vs.

An epic 45th Anniversary Shonen Jump crossover fighting game that combines the universes of several Shonen Jump series!



It's coming later this year (in Japan at least), for both PS3 and Vita.

It looks a bit too fangame-ysh to me, but I'm sure a lot of you out there will love it.

#Movies NEWS! Ranma + Kenshin proper trailers

Let's check out on upcoming live manga-adaptations!

But first, check out this -totally unrelated-new poster for Sam Raimi's 2013 Oz: the Great and Powerful. Which is going to be a prequel of the old classic.
Was it really necessary? And why not a sequel, there's several "official" books sequel to the original story, why make a prequel which won't feature scarecrows or lions in it? Do we really need "the untold secret past" of Oz?...

sigh...

Manga NEWS! Kenshin gets a trailer

And now the live adaptation of Rurouni Kenshin gets a trailer!



And it looks pretty cool!
Another anime getting a pretty much perfect adaptation?

Manga NEWS! Kenshin gets live

Here's yet another one of these recent movie adaptations from good ol' popular mangas/animes.

This one will also be a Japanese movie (like the recently announced Ranma, Phoenix Wright and Harlock) rather than an American butcher-job...
One of my all-time favorite classic mangas is getting the treatment this time.
Rurouni Kenshin!

Kenshin, for the ones of you who don't know, is a story about this self-titled young retired Samurai living in the Meiji Era. (after the long Edo period, Meiji marked the time when Japan decided to live the old rules away, start opening his culture to the outside world and progress and Samurais became obsolete)
