Man, Kenshiro has been voiced by already tons of VA. When will they settle for a single one to actually embody the legendary character? But regardless, looking forward to this one...

Gotta hear that "Omae mou wa shinderu!" meme once again!

I've come to consider Kenshiro as a Japanese equivalent to James Bond, i.e. he'll be portrayed by numerous actors because he's so iconic that everyone wants to play him. Regardless, though, this new Blue Sky anime is an exception, since Yamadera is reprising his role from the 2006 anime.

Also, speaking of the previous TV series, is Regenesis a full-on sequel to the 2006 series? I see that Yasaka (the Toki lookalike) has been cast, and the most we ever saw of him in the 2006 series was an appearance during the 2nd ED sequence; apparently, the staff wanted to get to his point in the story, but weren't able to.

Jeezaloo! Can't they animate this regularly?! I don't think CGI is the best chose for this anime. So many fighting scenes. Anime dazed

It's funny that Takehito Koyasu has played both Kenshiro and Rei in the past

Humm Yumi Touma is replacing Aya Hisakawa for the role of Pān Yù-Líng. Which is strange given that Hisakawa is still active. Unless it is meant that she grew up and they decided that Skuld should sound like Urd now Laughing
