If you’re not familiar with Bastard!!, it’s a legendary manga (for several reasons, including the fact that it was never finished) by Kazushi Hagiwara.
It debuted on Weekly Shounen Jump in 1988, when the magazine definitely published a very different caliber of manga compared to today. With its 30 million copies sold, it’s one of Shueisha’s best-selling manga of all time.
The anime series is produced by Liden Films, which worked on Muv-Luv‘s prequel Schwarzesmarken, Tokyo Revengers, the brand new Tribe Nine, and they’re currently producing the return to the screen of Ruroni Kenshin.
