The
popular manga Kagurabachi could be about to make the leap to
anime. In Japan, the kagurabachi.jp domain was recently
registered, which sparked speculation among fans about an official announcement
in the short term. Although there is still no confirmation from Shueisha or
any production committee, this type of move is usually a prelude to important
projects.
Why so
much noise?
Takeru
Hokazono's manga,
serialized in the Weekly Shonen Jump, has been one of the biggest
recent phenomena within the magazine, gaining notoriety not only in Japan, but
also in international communities. Its blend of action, stylized violence, and
intense narrative has secured it a prominent place in modern shōnen
conversation.
A
well-known pattern
Registering
web domains with a franchise name is a common resource before announcing anime
adaptations or new multimedia projects. In the past, cases such as Jujutsu
Kaisen or Chainsaw Man showed similar movements weeks
before their official confirmations.
Fan
expectations
On social
networks, the community is already almost taking for granted the announcement
of a Kagurabachi anime. If confirmed, it would be one of the
most anticipated releases in the industry, considering the speed with which the
work has climbed in popularity since its debut.
