This year's 8th issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine revealed that Yūji Kaku's Hell's Paradise: Jigokuraku manga will receive a TV anime adaptation.
Kaku commented on the adaptation with the following words:
An anime adaptation! ... it makes me so happy, but it hasn’t fully sunk in yet, and it feels like a dream. To all the anime staff, I entrust the characters of Hell's Paradise: Jigokuraku into your capable hands. Lord Reality, if this is a dream, please don’t wake me up.
The manga revolves around Gabimaru, once celebrated as the strongest ninja, who has now abandoned his profession and violated his village's laws. After being captured, he claims he has nothing left worth living for. However, due to his superhuman training, he has unintentionally survived multiple execution attempts, from beheading to burning at the stake. The executioner Sagiri Asaemon tells him that he still clings to life and gives him a mission to earn his pardon: find the elixir of immortality.
