The official Twitter account for the new TV anime adaptation of Ryu Fujisaki's Hoshin Engi manga and the latest issue of Shueisha's Young Jump magazine revealed that the new anime will be a remake rather than a continuation.

The voice cast for the new anime was also announced, which differs from the first series.

- Kensho Ono as Taikōbō

- Tomoaki Maeno as Bunchū

- Takahiro Sakurai as Sūpūshan (Sibuxiang)

Fujisaki's 23-volume manga originally ran in Weekly Shonen Jump from 1996-2000. The manga is based on the ancient Chinese novel Fengshen Yanyi. The fantasy manga and the first anime adaptation take place thousands of years ago. An evil sorceress has bewitched the emperor of a powerful dynasty, turning him into a mindless puppet. The Confederation of Immortal Masters plans a daring mission: they send a young wizard to hunt down the villains and evil sorcerers in the devastated lands.
