Born as a level 5 cross-media project, in cooperation with the important Shueisha publishing house, Megaton Musashi has generated a lot of interest in the months leading up to the video game and anime’s release and surprisingly extended it for a second season planned for 2022.
With its debut dating back to October 1, 2021, the anime’s first season, which is still in the works, has had fairly compelling results that have made the series’ original creator as well as the director so urgent Akihiro Hino to continue its production. It was the company’s official website to formalize the arrival of one second season in autumn 2022, with the consequent return of Hino as director, Takuzo Nagano as character designer and Ken’ichiro Saigo for composing the soundtrack.
Megaton Musashi’s popularity, limited almost entirely to the Japanese scene for the time being, has certainly been influenced by the content posted on Weekly Shonen Jump and. were published the goods from Bandai, as well as the production of a spin-off anime called After School. One of the strengths of the project is the presence of different perspectives depending on the medium.
For those who want to get closer to this universe, the story unfolds through two basic events: the elimination of 90% of humanity after an invasion, eliminated from the minds of survivors, and from the narrative of the lives of three boys, ordinary students, whose lives are turned upside down when they are called to control war machines that together make up the mighty Musashi robot.
