New Sanjushi Anime Next Month

I’m not sure exactly when this got announced, but the NHK television network has revealed that its educational channel’s 50th anniversary production will be a 40 episode puppet anime adaptation of The Three Musketeers titled Renzoku Ningyo Katsugeki: Shin Sanjushi (Action Series Puppets: New Three Musketeers). The series will feature a screenplay by comedian, playwright, and director Koki Mitani (Warai no Daigaku, The Uchoten Hotel). The show will premiere on October 12.
