Supernatural shinigami anime Kyoukai no Rinne has been previewed, likely thrilling fans of the legendary Takahashi Rumiko – behind such timeless classics as Inuyasha and Ranma 1/2.
The rather talkative PV arrives by way of the anime adaptation’s official website:
The show is slated for broadcast during the relatively busy spring season.
Didn’t like it. Same crap as Inu. Inu was only good at start.
What Rumiko Takahashi specializes in is making manga for each generation. If you were of the age that got her first big series Urusei Yatsura and Maison Ikkoku, then Ranma 1/2 is not your generation. And likely neither is Inu Yasha.
Urusei Yatsura was my first Rumiko anime, and I thought I’d be a fan of her’s forever. I was wrong. Ranma turned out to be as repetitive as DBZ. And Inu Yasha was nearly more of the same.
Sorry, Urusei Yatsura and Maison Ikkoku are my only Rumiko series.
I think it will be forgettable.
Anything Rumiko has written will get an anime adaption.
Failed manga series? Check.
Scrapped proto-types for a manga series? Check.
Fan-fics she posted on the Internet back in 1997? Check.
Her grocery list? Check.
All character archetypes will be recycled.
Mermaid Saga never got an anime :p
Surely you jest. It did and was quite mediocre, but I still like it very much.
I’ll be damned I never knew Mermaid Saga got a treatment…
INUYASHA!
