The anime will be one of two announced anime adaptations to adapt the browser game developed by Nitroplus and e-commerce company DMM. The browser game, which began service in January 2015, launched a mobile version in March of this year, with the application currently having more than a million downloads. The second anime adaptation of the game, titled Touken Ranbu, was announced to premiere in 2017 and will be produced by studio ufotable.

Just letting you know these should be "Mutsunokami" rather than "Mutsunoka", "Namazuo" rather than "Hamazuo", and "Yamanbagiri" rather than "Yamanbakiri".

Also not sure if it was seen on the previous announcement's post, but the names are also in the "First Last" name format since they are sword names and not human.

So Souza Samonji and Hasebe are there. Then it's a must watch.

Wonder if now that Hachisuka is there they will add Nagasone, dying to see both of them interact.
