This isn't mainstream, right? This is going right to the adult video section behind the counter, right?

Clearly Oda and his ilk still have much to learn about ecchi content from Uncle Go.

Straight out of Dororon Enma-kun Meramera, I see.

Other way around. Dororon took its cues from Kekko Kamen.

This film looks more disturbing than any horror film...

Enpi was supposed to be a sexbent version of Enma, of course with Uncle Go's classic dose of fanservice to the extremes. I forget when he published that volume though, but Kekko Kamen is nearly as old as most of his older works anyway. I really wish someone like ARMS or Hoods could do another OVA for it, that would be spectacular.

Forget ARMS or Hoods (though I do love ARMS), RE: Cutie Honey was awesome, so I'd prefer a Kekko Kamen remake to be done by Studio Trigger.

I know Kekko Kamen first, but it's pretty obvious they're cashing in on Kick-Ass w/ this adaptation.

Media Blasters released the Kekko-Kamen, Kekko Kamen: The MGF Strikes Back!, and Kekko Kamen Surprise!! live-action films in North America in 2005.


Any particular reason for not mentioning "Kekko Kamen Returns!" which they also released in 2005? It wasn't any better then the other three, but I didn't think it deserved to be ignored completely.

So, does anyone think there's even a hope of the new one getting released here?

There have already been 10 Kekko Kamen live-action videos. Do we really need more?

Not at all.

They've been doing Kekko Kamen movies for quite long now.

Anyway this looks terribly boring. The other movies seem more fun than this.

It would be funny if this was screened at the NYAFF. Of course they would have to have adult night. But I won't hold my breath. But be curious to see. Now will they have the signature Go Nagai censor for Kekko Kamen's face hug?
