    Shigurui

    I started reading this manga last October, and it really impressed me. The art style needed some getting used to, but in the end it's a really beautifully drawn series. I just read that they are planning an animated series on it, so that's why I'm starting this thread. I usually wouldn't start a thread without the series being released, but animating this series might be a little tricky. The level of graphic violence and gore in the series is overwhelming, so I'm interested in what you guys may think of it, and if you think the anime will do it justice.

    Here's the article with the announcement of the anime:
    http://animenewsnetwork.com/news/200...-2007-shigurui

    1630, in the province of Suruga, Japan. The cruel prince Tadanaga Tokugawa, third brother of the Shogun Iemitsu, decides to gather the most valiant fighters to make them face eachothers in a tournament. The first duel opposes two man that seems to know eachothers, Gennosuke Fujiki and Seigen Irako. But what is their real connection?

    Warning! Extremely violent, gory including sex. For a mature audience only.

    Here are some samples from the first chapter of the manga so that you can see what I mean. Go read the first 3 chapters that have been released too so that you get a better idea. Not interested in discussing the manga, but mainly on the type of content and the level of violence and how it will be potrayed when animated.

    Warning, these samples are very graphic and gory, so don't click the link if you think it's not suited for you.
