After
hitting it big in the Japanese market with an astonishing $8 million
at the box-office, the sequel to this year's (so far) Japanese
highest grossing picture, Rurouni Kenshin: Kyoto Inferno, already has fans eyes set on it.
Take
a look at yet another poster for Rurouni Kenshin: The Legend Ends,
which is set to open in Japan on September 13th.
Like
Kyoto Inferno, Rurôni Kenshin: The Legend End will look to adapt
the "Kyoto Arc" of the original manga from Nobuhiro
Watsuki. Keishi Ōtomo returns to direct both feature films for
Studio Swan. Takeru Satoh plays Kenshin Himura, Emi Takei returns as
Kaoru Kamiya, Yusuke Iseya plays Aoshi Shinomori, Munetaka Aoki plays
Sanosuke Sagara, Yuu Aoi co-stars as Megumi Takani, Ryunosuke Kamiki
plays Sōjirō Seta, Yosuke Eguchi plays Hajime Saitō, Tatsuya
Fujiwara plays Makoto Shishio, the venerable min Tanaka plays Nenji
Kashiwazaki/Okina, Kazufumi Miyazawa plays Toshimichi Ōkubo,
Yukiyoshi Ozawa plays Hirobumi Itō, Kaito Ōyagi plays Yahiko
Myōjin, Maryjun Takahashi plays Yumi Komagata and Ryosuke Miura
plays Chō Sawagejō. Watsuki's original manga began in 1994 and
recently concluded its non-concurrent run this past June in Jump
Square. Rurouni Kenshin: Kyoto Taika-hen (Rurouni Kenshin: The Great
Kyoto Fire) will be released in Japan theaters this autumn, on August
1st. The third film, Rurouni Kenshin: Densetsu no Saigo-hen (Rurouni
Kenshin: The End of a Legend) will be released just a month later, on
