First trailer for Crunchyroll’s Shenmue anime series

October 10, 2021 by Gary Collinson

During this weekend’s New York Comic Con, Crunchyroll and Adult Swim have shared a first poster and trailer for Shenmue the Animation, a new anime adaptation of the iconic SEGA video game franchise. Check them out here…

Shenmue follows the journey of Ryo Hazuki. After he witnesses his father’s murder at the family dojo, Ryo dedicates his life to finding the man responsible – a mission that takes him from the streets of Yokosuka, Japan to the sprawling metropolis of Hong Kong, and beyond. Soon he’ll learn that larger, mystical forces are at play as he trains to become the ultimate martial artist in his quest for revenge.

Shenmue the Animation is being directed by Sakurai Chikara (One Punch Man, Naruto) and is slated to premiere in 2022.
