How about some staff announcements? I want to know what studio and director this has. I'm leaning towards MAPPA.

Don't worry, Dakki has picked out the absolute best studio.

I'm lost. The french traductor used the chinese name (transcripted from mandarin with pinyin romanization code) for the manga, So I can't begin to understand who is who.

I think the MC's name in Japan is Taikobo

Fellow french reader here :
Taikobo : Taigong Wong
Bunshu : General Wen Zhong
Supushan : Si Bu Xiang

I recon that this is a bit complicated but I like what the french publisher did in terms of translation. Being set in China, it makes more sense to try and get close to the original language. But I can say come January 2018, I'm gonna be a little sad not to hear all the names I came to know from reading this french version.

I hope the studio they picked is gonna deliver in terms of quality. This is an epic story that deserves nothing less than a stellar adaptation.

It would be great if they adapt the entire manga. I'd really like to see the final battles animated.
