New Main Trailer for Bucchigiri Anime
On November 24, 2023, Mappa released the new main trailer for Bucchigiri on their official Youtube channel including English subtitles. The trailer seems quite captivating and features several major characters from the series, including Arajin and Matakara.
However, fans did not respond very well to the trailer, and it barely crossed 69k views within 13 days of its release. These numbers suggest that fans are not as interested in this upcoming anime as they are in Mappa’s recent project.
