Written by Ryu Fujisaki (藤崎 竜) during 1996-2000, manga Hoshin Engi (封神演義) will be getting another TV anime after its last adaption in 1999. The news was leaked by a Japanese netizen on Twitter.
According to the leaked magazine page, the new show will be made by production members who are very faithful to the original manga. Kensho Ono, Tomoaki Maeno and Takahiro Sakurai have been cast as Taikobo, Bunchuu and Su-pu-shan.
The new anime will revolve around Senkai Taisen as well as the rivalry between Taikobo and Bunchuu. The original manga on Weekly Shonen Jump is inspired by Chinese literature Fengshen Yanyi. The plot mainly follows Taikobo and his task to restore peace in the late In Dynasty of China.
cant wait for it, hopefully will be different from the old anime
