Hokkaido Arc for Rurouni Kenshin.
In the video, Sasaki reveals that Kenshin will be the protagonist of the new series, and that the new series will have five "arcs."
The new manga will launch this spring. Watsuki and his wife published the prequel in English in December.
Watsuki first launched his Rurouni Kenshin manga in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine in 1994. The manga centers around Kenshin Himura, once a deadly assassin during the Meiji Restoration, who is trying to find a new life beyond violence. The manga has since been adapted into a 95-episode TV anime series, an anime film, three original video anime, three live-action films, and a stage Takarazuka Revue.
Watsuki previously Shishio Makoto and Yumi Komagata met.
