Dude is doing big things, with Cannon Busters dropping next year as well :ehh:

Set in a war-torn Japan of mechs and magic, Yasuke follows a retired ronin who must take up his sword when he is charged with the task of transporting a mysterious child who dark forces want to eliminate. The series from the animation studio MAPPA will feature the voice of Sorry to Bother You star Lakeith Stanfield as the titular protagonist, which is based on the historical samurai of African origin who fought with Oda Nobunaga. Creator/Director/Executive Producer is LeSean Thomas (The Boondocks, Cannon Busters) while the Grammy-nominated Flying Lotus will compose the music and serve as an Executive Producer. Stanfield and Colin Stark will also serve as Executive Producers.

2 episode down and it’s okay would rather they focused on him when he first came to Japan and regular sword play over this story line, plus his personality is just bland he is the nice guy, visuals are great hope the story pick up.
