A clip from the upcoming Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League anime movie has been released.
More of the film’s Japanese voice cast was also revealed. In addition to Koichi Yamadera‘s Batman/Bruce Wayne, viewers can expect to hear Yuki Kaji as Robin, Kengo Kawanishi as Red Robin, Kensho Ono as Nightwing, Akira Ishida as Red Hood, Hochu Otsuka as Alfred, and Masaki Terasama as Gordon.
Additionally, it was announced that the anime will be featured at this year’s New York Comic-Con with the Bats in Translation: “Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League” panel. It will take place on October 17 starting 3 PM ET, the same time and date as the Batman Azteca: Choque De Imperios” Video Presentation and Panel.
Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League is the sequel to 2018’s Batman Ninja. While the first film saw Batman fighting his villains in Japan’s Warring States period after being affected by a device built by Gorilla Grodd, the new movie will see the Caped Crusader taking on different versions of the Justice League in a more modern but still unfamiliar world, with Robin by his side.
