posted on by Egan Loo
The official website for the Ikki Tousen franchise began streaming the second promotional video for the new Ikki Tousen: Shūgaku Tōshi Keppu-roku anime project on Tuesday. The anime will play in theaters in Tokyo, Chiba, and Osaka starting November 12.
Geneon Entertainment once released the first Ikki Tousen anime series in North America, and Funimation then picked up the license. Media Blasters has licensed both the second Ikki Tousen anime series, Ikki Tousen: Dragon Destiny, and the third series, Ikki Tousen Great Guardians. Tokyopop held the license to Yuji Shiozaki's original manga in North America under the name Battle Vixens until the company closed its North American publishing branch.
The last entry in the franchise, Ikki Tousen: Xtreme Xecutor, aired in 2010.
