A wild new trailer for theupcoming Batman anime movieBatman Ninja vs. Yakuza League is here, and it simply has to be seen to be believed.
For one thing, the footage opens with the Yakuza literally raining down from the sky over Gotham – a phenomenon apparently called “a Yakuza-storm.” Then, the islands of Japan appear over Gotham, too, and the Justice League make some cameos. It seems the Yakuza is trying to form a team of their own – appropriately titled the Yakuza League – and it’s up to Batman, along with some help from Alfred, Robin, Nightwing, and Red Hood, to stop them. Check out the trailer above.
This is far from the only Batman project on the way, of course. It was recently announced that ananimated movie about the RobinsDick Grayson and Jason Todd – the future Nightwing and Red Hood – was on the way, and then there’s the Brave and the Bold movie arriving inDCU Chapter One: Gods and Monsters, as well as the ongoing Matt Reeves-verse (The Penguin is currently releasing weekly, with The Batman 2 on the way).
