Netflix’s Onimusha Trailer Released

Are you ready to see the world of Onimusha like never before? If so, then you are in luck! Netflix has been working with the studio Sublimation to create an original Onimusha anime, and the show just launched its first trailer.

As you can see below, the promo for Onimusha brings Musashi Miyamoto to life in 3DCG. The character, who is a familiar face in the Onimusha video games, was modeled after actor Toshiro Mifune for this show. As for their voice, the protagonist will be voiced by Akio Otsuka who audiences will know from tons of video games like Metal Gear. And of course, they have quite a history in anime.
