Gonna have to find a way to watch it in the Netherlands.....but cannot wait, awesome surprise.
SEGA Forever, SEGA America, SEGA Europe, and Danny Russell (runs SEGA Forever's socials), have all retweeted it as well. SEGA West's Facebook page also shared it.It's great this is being promoted on Sega's official Twitter.
"It is with gratitude to everyone that I have been able to experience the miracle of the release of the sequel 20 years later, and the miracle continues now with its first animation! Shenmue is a very big work in my life. I hope that everyone will be able to experience the world of Shenmue, both those who have loved it for a long time and made miracles happen, as well as those who don't even know its name. I'm looking forward to seeing it too! Let's enjoy it together."
"I'm Takahiro Sakurai, and I'll be playing the role of Lan Di.
On a personal note, when I first started working as a voice actor, my first encounter with this work was when I participated as a test voice for its development. It was a valuable and stimulating experience for me. And now Shenmue will be relaunched as an animation. This was such exciting news. Even after more than 20 years, the world of Shenmue has not faded away. I hope to enjoy it with you all".
But I also am disappointed that Xiuying isn't on the key art.I'm glad they're keeping Joy. I think I remember reading some speculation that they'd cut her for some reason.
Someone find @Van Joel Sandwich as hype levels have reached an insane level
Someone find @BruceWayne911 . We're all going to need to take out loans at Bruce's bank for anime merch
What a great day. Not one, but two trailers!!!!
We're getting Shenmue for the next 3 months. What a time to be a shenmue fan
