Kagurabachi, created and drawn by Takeru Hokazono, runs in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump. The long‑awaited anime version is slated to debut in April 2027, with Crunchyroll handling worldwide streaming (excluding Japan, Mainland China, North Korea, and South Korea).

Studio Cypic oversees the animation work, with Tetsuya Takeuchi serving as director. Takeuchi is best recognized for the Rock Lee vs Gaara battle in Naruto. Earlier we also interviewed CyberAgent’s Takahiro Yamauchi, who discussed the company’s mission to produce “high‑quality Japanese animation works that can be accepted globally.”
