Hell's Paradise Creator Highlights Nurugai in New Sketch
The Hell's Paradise: Jigokuraku anime s now airing its episodes as part of the ongoing Spring 2023 anime schedule, and the series creator behind it all has celebrated the latest episode of the Hell's Paradise anime with a special new sketch highlighting Nurugai! The Hell's Paradise manga wrapped up its run a couple of years ago, but the creator behind it is still very much invested in the franchise. Not only did they return for a special new chapter taking place after the end of Hell's Paradise's story, but they are sharing some special sketches for the anime's run.
Hell's Paradise: Jigokuraku series creator Yuji Kaku has been celebrating the launch of each of the new episodes of the Hell's Paradise anime with a special sketch going all with each new release. But unlike a standard sketch just highlighting each of the characters, Kaku has given each of their fighter's major makeovers that fans never got to see in the original run of the series. This includes the latest sketch Yuji Kaku shared to Twitter, which offers a fun Punk Rock take on Nurugai. Check it out below:
