Takeshi Kitano's film "Ryuzo and the Seven Youngsters", an anime adaptation of a film that was never intended to be animated!　The first part "Ryuzo, Y-Shirt and Me" is now available to the public.

An animated version of "Ryuzo and the Seven Youngsters" has been released.

Ryuzo and the Seven Youngsters" is the 17th live-action film directed by Takeshi Kitano. It is a human drama that humorously depicts old retired yakuza men confronting young men who do whatever they want in the form of olele scams and corrupt door-to-door sales, and attracted attention for its co-starring of very experienced actors with an average age of 72.

The anime version announced this time was made possible by an offer from the film's production side, as FROGMAN of "The Secret Society of Hawk's Nail" is a big fan of director Takeshi Kitano's works. DLE will produce a total of five collaborative animated films.

In the first one, "Ryuzo, Y-Shirt and Me," released on September 29, a wife welcomes her husband back from work while ironing his Y-shirt. The wife welcomes her husband back from work while ironing his Y-shirt, and somehow Ryuzo is in the room...a surreal situation and humorous conversational drama.

Part 1: "Ryuzo, Y-shirts, and Me" (Sept. 29)
Part 2 "Ryuzo and the Departure of Youth" to be released on October 5
Part 3: "Ryuzo and I's Strange Community Life Has Begun" (scheduled to be released on October 6)
Part 4 "Ryuzo, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs 1" to be released on October 7
