Adult Swim has dropped an official trailer for Ninja Kamui, the upcoming original anime from Sunghoo Park (Jujutsu Kaisen Season 1, The God of High School). The almost two-minute long preview quickly explains the revenge-based set-up for the story before diving into scenes of bloody sword combat and shots of ninjas in high-tech garb.
Ninja Kamui is set to premiere on Toonami on February 10, midnight. Below is the synopsis for the show:
Ninja Kamui follows Joe Higan who is a Nukenin – a former ninja who escaped his clan and is hiding from his violent past in rural America with his family. One night, he is ambushed by a team of assassins from his former organization who exact a bloody retribution on Joe and his family for betraying their ancient code. Rising from his seeming “death,” Joe will re-emerge as his former self – Ninja Kamui – to avenge his family and friends. Kamui is a 21st century ninja, a shadowy anachronism who pits his ancient skills against high-tech weaponry with brutal finesse. He must face off against trained assassins, combat cyborgs, and rival ninjas to bring down the very clan that made him.
