A new trailer for the upcoming live action adaptation of Watsuki Nobuhiro’s manga, Rurouni Kenshin has been aired
The movie has the following cast
Satou Takeru as Himura Kenshin.
Takei Emi as Kamiya Kaoru.
Aoki Munetaka as Sagara Sanosuke
Taketo Tanaka as Myoujin Yahiko.
Aoi Yuu as Takani Megumi.
Eguchi Yosuke as Saitou Hajime.
Kikkawa Kouji as Udou Jine.
Kagawa Teruyuki as Takeda Kanryuu.
With Saitou Hajime making an appearance, it seems that this movie will just stop short of the Shishio arc. This means that they are also open for a sequel if this movie has a good earning. Let’s hope that it stays true to the spirit of the manga (like 20th Century Boys) and not ending up a shoddy adaptation (ala Gantz)
