The Spriggan manga is coming again with a full adaptation courtesy of Netflix and David Productions.

It previously had a OVA in 1998.

The final trailers were also released.

Japanese

English

PS: I've been able to get the Chuang Yi volumes from the original publication. Not sure if Seven Seas will include the bonus chapters.

Binging it. First episode is already showing the difference with the manga/anime.

And done.

Just realized that it doesn’t completely fall in with the manga chapters in order. Perfectly understandable though.

It looks like the six episodes up on Netflix are just part one of the cour, so now we wait for the rest.

The roles for women are oddly dated in a way I don't quite have the vocabulary to describe.

You'll have to explain which dated part you're talking about.

Meanwhile, I'll have to do a dive on Kenichi Kaneko's twitter. He assisted the staff in animating the small arms used in the ONA.

Hiroshi Seko gets interviewed.

Big thing to keep an eye on is on how the team animated which chapters and his views on modernizing the storyline to 2022 instead of the Cold War.

The production team said that a Spriggan anime that adapted the entire manga was in the works.

Also mentioned that they did cast Koyasu in the anime to symbolize the gag in the 1998 OVA.

This is one post that someone has, sharing his dislike on the having the Holy Grail Arc where Hitler's involved (and being a good guy)...

This was honestly the better place to put that. My comment's the same, the author of that post is being an ultranationalist baby.

Makes sense. Its always a good time when you're putting dumbasses on full blast so the internet can rake em over the coals.

Though the guy has a point on how Hitler's depicted. Although it may be YMMV at this point on his depiction.

If anyone's in Tokyo, Toho Cinema's having an event in June in one of their cinemas in Hibiya. The main seiyus for Yu, Jean and Yoshino will appear for an event.


Spriggan will also air in Japan via Tokyo MX and other stations.

Reading the fourth volume with everything compiled. Yay!

And the other one shot Minagawa made after the manga ended in the 1990s is translated too.
