The cherished Onimusha series is making a return of sorts, albeit not in the form of a game but a Netflix anime adaptation, which will have some critics wondering if it’ll be decent as Netflix productions tend to vary in quality.

Onimusha is a video game franchise that contains various Japanese historical figures and mixes in elements of the supernatural.

The Netflix anime’s chief director will be Takashi Miike, Shinya Sugai will serve as director, Sublimation was chosen as the animation studio, and Toshihiro Mifune is serving as the model for character Musashi Miyamoto.

According to Netflix, the anime will follow Musashi as he attempts to defeat the Genma during the Edo period of Japan:

The beginning of the Edo period, Musashi is no longer a young man. He departs with the legendary Oni Gauntlet to defeat the Genma. 3D CGI characters and hand-drawn backgrounds create phenomenal visuals. Onimusha is given a new life using modern-day animation technology.
