Will there be a Kagurabachi anime?
The series has a very good rating on the popular site focusing on manga and anime, My Anime List, so it's no surprise that its fans want to see it in anime form. And perhaps getting Kagurabachi on the list of most wanted anime will make those people's dream come true. Especially since Kagurabachi broke records before and after its release, enjoying great popularity.
In addition, the editor working on the series, Takuro Imamura, has revealed that their goal is to make Kagurabachi anime. However, nothing is known about this as of yet. There have been no announcements that such an adaptation could be planned or at least considered by anyone. Perhaps this will now change.
