This is what Yusuke Murata said in a recent interview about his future career intentions (via AnimeHunch):
- Yusuke Murata has assured us that despite his success as a mangaka, he has aspirations that go beyond the manga sector, and involve the anime industry. ?
- Specifically, the author said, “I have the desire to create an animation studio and challenge myself in the anime world.” ?
- Murata-sensei says that entertainment creators like him are like professional wrestlers: they’re always looking to go the extra mile in their specialty. ?
- On the other hand, it’s important to note that the One Punch Man cartoonist doesn’t mention when he would reach this milestone in his career. It could happen in a few months, a few years or perhaps a decade. ?
Obviously, in this conversation, we have to remember that Yusuke Murata is already working on what is his first official anime: “Zaiyuki”. So far, the “One Punch Man” manga artist has already given us a few glimpses of the anime in question, which looks very promising. Details of its release and duration have yet to be confirmed, but in the article I’m sharing with you, you’ll find everything that’s been said on the subject.
