Based in the same world as Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan is a one chapter anthology manga that chronicles the strange occurrences that the main character, Kishibe Rohan, experiences. Since its release, the manga has had just as much of a following as its much longer predecessor and is a huge hit with fans.
The manga has been such a hit, in fact, that there was even an anime that was released that was animated in the same vein as Jojo and even contained a lot of similar humor. Now, with both series amassing such positive feedback, it only makes sense that a live-action adaption will soon follow.
Now, with a new live-action series on the horizon, a ton of new announcements have started flowing in for the show! Not only will it be a 3 episode mini-series, but the titular hero will also be played by Issei Takahashi (Whisper of the Heart)!
As its winter release draws nearer, there is no doubt more announcements will follow suit. We would love to hear your thoughts on the new series in the comments below!
he Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan series is a set of fantasy stories, all spanning a single chapter of around 50 to 60 pages and usually organized into disordered "episodes". They all feature Rohan Kishibe, who usually witnesses and subsequently makes an account of the supernatural phenomena happening to him.
Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan premieres on December 28th!
