The news that from the renowned video game on fromsoftware, "Elden Ring", I would get live adaptation with action (Written and directed by Alex Garland, who is a big fan) was a kind of huge surprise. But maybe even more surprise is that the older classic of the development studio, "Sekiro: Shadows die twice", will also have its own adaptation. The scale is much smaller for this, though: developed by the American Streaming Crunchyroll platform - which specialize in the delivery of Japanese anime TV -emissions and movies For audiences in different countries - "Sekiro: without defeat" will be an anime TV series announcing next year.
Based on the fast, brutally heavy but extremely rewarding action game, the show will tell the story of the Shinobi Warrior, trying to save his abducted Lord, Goku, in the 16th period of 16t-Artura Japan. With the advertisement we already got the first official trailer It will surely be known to the other heads of Sekiro like me. In it, we have to see our collision with a pony tail with Geneniciro on that stunningly beautiful and iconic field of Susuki, where we all died for the first time, shortly after the start of the game.
Kuro and Ouuuu also briefly appeared along with some of the most memorable locations we play infinitely walking around during our few players. However, based on this one -minute first glance, it is difficult to say whether anime will even get closer to live up to the outstandingness of the game.
Sekiro: No defeat will have a challenge on his hands to catch the magic of his source of material
I will not lie, as someone who put more than 180 hours through several players in Sekiro, this first trailer looks far from impressive. While the animation style matches the game more or less, it lacks that inherent beauty and attention to the details that Miyazaki has managed to capture so hard. On the plus side, the story seems to be quite loyal to the original material, besides Daisuke Namikava, Miyuki Sato and Kenjiro Fuda play their roles as a wolf, the Kuro/Divine successor and Genenichiro Aishna. Relentless, dynamic and exhausting action (based on a narrow deviation mechanic in the game), with the over-top, also a questionnaire based on what we see in the video-though those few moments that show the battle with Ouosubub, may be promising.
As for other well -known details, Anime will be held by the director for the first time Kenichi Kutsuna, written by Takuja Sato, a fruitful and well -familiar screenwriter in animation. Although there is no exact date of publication or precise number of how many episodes we get, According to Crunchyroll's announcementThe series is scheduled for premiere in 2026. Kutsuna also referred to how he and his team would access the material:
"We are taking the monumental task to animate the strikingly beautiful" Sekiro: Shadows die twice. "With that, we pour every ounce of our artistic vision and passion for beauty in its production. The final product is made to be a truly unforgettable experience, the one that will make a lasting impression on the two dedicated game fans and those who discover the world of Sekiro for the beginning.
Well, here we hope those words will ring in the final product, and we will get loyal and beautiful adaptation to one of the best video games fromsoftware ever made.
