It's a good day to be a giant kaiju fan. Netflix has announced its expansion into animation with several new animated series, including those based on Pacific Rim and Altered carbon.
According to Deadline, Netflix is working on five new anime. There is a show of Cowboy Bebop writer Dai Sato that will take place in the world of Altered carbon, the Netpix cyberpunk show based on novels by Richard K. Morgan. Altered carbon is currently preparing for its second season and this anime will further expand the universe of history and its mythology.
Gonzo, the studio behind Hellsing and Afro Samurai, develops a series called Cagaster, based on a post-apocalyptic manga where people turn into insects. There is Trese, a supernatural series based on Filipino folklore. So what Yasuke, a series that takes place in "A war-torn Japan of magicians and magic," starring Lakeith Stanfield (Sorry to bother you) as a retired ronin charged with taking care of a mysterious child . The series comes from a graphic novel, but is based on the true story of Yasuke, a samurai of African descent.
Of course, the most exciting announcement should be that expected Pacific Rim Craig Kyle's series (Thor: Ragnarok) and Greg Johnson (X-Men: Evolution). It will feature a teenager and his younger sister, who take control of an abandoned Jaeger as they crisscross the country in search of their parents. Since the Pacific Rim Franchise is a massive tribute to classic cartoon movies and Japanese monster movies. It is therefore normal that she gets her own animated series. I hope it's better than following.
There were discussions of a Pacific Rim Animated series of the creator Guillermo del Toro since the announcement of the sequel in 2014, but this one was subsequently suspended. At present, it is unclear if this anime is related to the original planned series or the involvement of del Toro in this project. But as he also works with Netflix on his Pinocchio project, seems possible that it could be involved here too. We will keep you posted.
