A flash trailer of the series is available on the website...

http://www.busourenkin.com/

...hmmm, this series looks like it'll be fun. Though since Xebec is animating it, I doubt it'll follow the manga religiously.

Thanks for the info darkchibi07 =)

I read some of the manga, but not that much of it as there wasn't at lot of it translated. The manga is Licensed now, but it will take a while for all the volumes to come out ^^; The anime looks great! and VA seems pretty good, the animation is really nice. It kinda looks like the start of some Street fighter/fighting game opening movie with the music in the background

LightningZERO · 2006-07-05, 03:09

Finally some news. It looks great! I hope the actions will be great!!!

Shinji103 · 2006-07-05, 05:38

Well Xebec doing the anime pretty much guarantees it'll be 26 episodes long. Fortunately though, unlike Negima, 26 episodes can actually work for BuRen.

LightningZERO · 2006-07-05, 09:22

There's some interesting thing on the official site. Right corner, the Kakugane. Click it and it shows some Busou Renkin inculding Captain Bravo's and the Black Kakugane too!!!

ginko51 · 2006-07-05, 18:02

^What do you mean?

akurashy · 2006-07-05, 23:01

i think endow just wrote what i was about to say XD

anyway, i started reading the manga, and somehow the anime looks more "matured" in a way than the manga.

also somehow this reminds me of chrono crusade
(gasps and enter a wtf?)
the thingy in their hand looks like the lifespan clock that chrono gave to .... *bad memory kicks in*

it's true it does have a mix of FMA but i don't care as long as they keep it interesting x_X..

busou renkin (every time i think about it, it pops up in my mind like "battousai kenshin" x_X

well i hope it turns good

Wait, Busou Renkin's only going to be 26 episodes? I thought it would be more like 35 or something. Oh well, if Bleach could get though 5 volumes in 14 episodes, so can BR.

Edit: NM. I see the 26 episodes isn't confirmed. Silly me.

I guess it is pretty hard to say how closely the anime will follow the manga, but so far I have seen nothing to suggest the anime may stray a lot from the original story. The artwork on the official site, the voice cast, the scans.
On SSDC, Watsuki did say that he was not entirely excluded from the production, but got to check the design, the scenario, the casting.

@Endow
j-rurouni.com is for the re-release of the Rurouni Kenshin manga... with links to the upcoming DVD box and the upcoming PS2 game. Somehow, there is a lot going on for Watsuki at the moment.

And don't diss Papillon.

Personally, I think the graphics aren't as good as one might have hoped. Sadly.
There's a trailer, decide for yourself.
On a darker note, this is apparantly the final voice work of Hirotaka Suzuoki (Saito), who died last week.

Shinji103 · 2006-08-15, 17:59

Lately, anime-based games are somewhat lower-budget than big-name games like Final Fantasy or Wild Arms. The Black Cat PS2 game was the same, not the best graphics but not bad either. I've just gotten used to it.

Think of it like Gundam and ZOE. Gundam is good at anime, but not as good at games. ZOE is good at games, but not as good at anime. (not to say either is bad in their alternate form, but they're not as good as their main form)

Personally though, I think the RK PS2 game graphics are pretty good.

Shinji103 · 2006-08-16, 18:55

More promos. Muwahahahaha.

kaeli · 2006-08-17, 16:30

Thanks for posting this...!

This is the first good picture of Mahiro... and it looks like her school uniform's skirt was shortened.

LightningZERO · 2006-08-17, 23:15

Wow. New updates and there's OP and ED information too!

kaeli · 2006-09-29, 04:01

Eh, the thread is kind of dead, but I think that this should be posted.

Namely, the 30 seconds trailer that has popped up two days ago:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZXah4lhBH0

The anime is airing on October 4th, starring Jun Fukuyama, Ryouka Yuzuki, Aya Hirano, Mitsudaki Madono, Masashi Ebara aaaand others.

Opening song: Makka na Chikai by Yoshiki Fukuyama
Ending: Hoshiakari by Jukai

Haohmaru · 2006-09-29, 10:14

The animation is not bad at all judging from the trailer. I wonder if they'll maintain that the whole show. Still some of the character designs are REALLY ugly.

Hmm, has there been a Xebec series where they kept things consistant?

Fighter Volk · 2006-09-29, 17:10

I'm glad to see that for now, at least, this'll be a literal adaptation of the manga

And yeah, the animation looks great, but of course it's only the first episode...
