This looks glorious.

"Director Jumpei Mizusaki has described Batman Ninja as a film meant to show the world how Japan sees Batman and not one about how Batman (and Bruce Wayne) see Japan. Judging by the trailer, Japan sees a badass side of Batman that’s like nothing we’ve ever seen before."

Haven't seen an entry on MyAnimeList yet.

What do you think?

Alright, before even watching the, I was sure I would hate it... but DAMN!!

That was the perfect voice acting for joker!! Gonna have to get used to the 3D... but it'll probably only be a 1 hour 30 mins. movie so it wouldn't be that much of a bother!!

Will be hyped for this, and I tend to not get hyped easily... can't be worse than the other DC movies, lol!!

Still, if only they'd have gone with the typical 2D artstyle... this would have helped the anime industry a lot!!

3DCG is not representative of anime (most of it is hand-drawn), and there is better 3DCG anime than this, like Houseki no Kuni, which isn't even a movie.

I don't think it looks great but I don't think it looks terrible either.
I'm definitely gonna give it a watch though (as I'm contractually obligated to watch all Batman movies)

@Saint_Nepunepu Hmmmpf. Can't say I dig it either. I'd take any cool scene from KlK or FLCL over this and its shiny hair.

(Yes, I mentionned a "recent" anime on purpose)

I wasn't asking you to choose between 2D and 3D, I said that there is better 3DCG than this Batman movie. They have that shiny hair because they are gems and it's likely one of the reasons why 3DCG was used for the adaptation.

Well, that explains why Batman sounds like a shounen protagonist here.

But the guy doing Joker did a pretty good job at capturing Mark Hamill's Joker voice.

I don't like the cell shaded CGI look. Beware the Batman cartoon which was a tv series not a movie had way better CG. I don't really like how anime Catwoman looks as well. I don't have my headphones to listen to the voice acting so I will judge that later. I might still watch the movie when it comes out though.

This looks really cheesy, but I'll take it! Take a popular superhero, put him in an unfamiliar setting, and see what they do with it. Definitely something that I wouldn't have expected to see. Being an anime on how Japan sees Batman, I hope Batman fans don't take this the wrong way and say that Batman is completely out of character...

I've heard that Batman is a Mary Sue.

Actually, I have some affection for the Adam West series. But the more recent stuff which seems to think the character can be taken seriously is daft. The solution to difficult social problems is not billionaires being above the law. In any case, I'm not interested.

Batman is male so he can't be a mary sue and he isn't a gary sue because he isn't perfect and has flaws.

Check out Batman Return of the Caped Crusaders since you like Adam West Batman. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGeQKu8RXDc

Okay so at first I thought mary sue was a female specific term and gary stu was only for males but it turns out that mary sue can be used for both sexes. So my bad there but Batman isn't one anyway.

Doubt it will even be as good as the worst animated DC Original Movies but this is a combination of two things I like: comic books and anime. So yeah, I'm game. Looks like something where you can just kick back, turn off your brain and just enjoy it for the fun.

Majority of recent anime releases are super generic anyway, so I'm more than happy to see something a little different.

Batman and Harley Quinn looked really stiff and rough. I think it began with the second or third season of Batman Beyond, when they switched to a different Chinese animation company.

Not one of my favorite Batman animated movies but I didn't find Batman and Harley Quinn stiff at all. They have never used any Chinese animation companies.

In what way is this meant to be representative of anime? It's 3DCG and based on a Western property. That's the opposite of what anime normally is.

Looks decent. It's done by the guys who worked on the Jojo anime's OP.

I'm rather tired of DC doing little beyond Batman though. I'd like to see a Superman anime, or a Green Lantern anime, or a Wonder Woman anime. Those would be cool IMO.

You know I'm usually not that picky with 3Dcgi but this just doesn't fit. sengoku era japan is the last thing I'd want to see in 3DCGI. And while the cgi itself isn't bad it's also not good and I definitely expect better from a movie.

But visuals aside conceptually I like it and it could still be a fun watch.
I probably regret this post by now.

New anime's are getting more and more full CGI animation. That's the sign of anime dying for me. It loses the 'anime' feel if you know what I'm saying

Most of the 3DCG in anime is used for things other than characters, and there are still many shows that use almost no 3DCG.
