Live-Action "Kenshin" Recast for April Fools' Day

Takeru Satoh might have been using his official site to blog about the tremendous effort taken to film this summer's Rurouni Kenshin - The Kyoto Fire and The Legend's Conclusion. However, the star is out. After hitting it off with the director, the part of political assassin turned wandering swordsman Himura Kenshin will now be played by Kumamon, previously best known as the mascot of Kumamoto Prefecture.


 


At least for April Fools' Day...


 




 


 


 


Meanwhile, an English-subtitled trailer has been posted...
