As far as series openers go? Wow. That's the best one-word description we can give for Adult Swim & Director Sunghoo Park's (God of High School, Jujutsu Kaisen) Ninja Kamui. All "Joe Logan" wanted was a quiet family life with his wife & son, and that's exactly what he was enjoying – until some vengeance-seeking ninjas brought it all to a bloody end. Goodbye, "Joe Logan." Hello, Joe Higan. Now, it's time for a mission of revenge that's going to bring a whole lot of nasty folks out of the shadows who want to put an end to it before it's even begun. With only hours to go until the next chapter, we're getting a preview of what's to come – and it's not looking pretty, as Joe gets brutal to get answers…
Now, here's a look back at the original official trailer, overview, and official trailer in Japanese – with English subtitles – with the next episode of Adult Swim's Ninja Kamui slashing through our screens tonight at midnight (and a Japanese dub re-air at 3 am):
An explosive story of revenge, "Ninja Kamui" follows a former ninja clan member who is haunted by the brutal murders of his family. Meanwhile, an FBI agent and his rookie partner also work to investigate the murders and uncover a vast global conspiracy.
