Yaiba‘s Second Looks Amazing From The Trailer
Yaiba Kurogane, who was nurtured and trained in the jungle to become a genuine samurai, unexpectedly comes back to Japan and starts living with the Mine family, who have a link to his father, Kenjuro. Sayaka Mine is frequently taken aback by Yaibaโs wild and untamed conduct. When Yaiba follows Sayaka to her school one day, he encounters Takeshi Onimaru, a talented kendo practitioner. Their competition sparks a significant series of events, reviving two legendary swords: the Fujinken (Wind God’s Sword) and the Raijinken (Thunder God’s Sword). These ancient blades, connected to a long-lost truth, are once again set into motion.
From the studio behind Attack on Titan and Vinland Saga, and Takahiro Hasui, the remake was announced to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Gosho Aoyama’s other work, Detective Conan, which is his biggest and most influential one yet. Although the original Yaiba anime from 30 years was amazing in its own right, the remake is definitely shaping up to be the definitive way to experience the series, as it is taking advantage of the latest animation technology while staying true to the classic shonen feel of the original series and paying homage to it with many references and recreations.
