BURBANK (January 17, 2024) - A former ninja clan member swears vengeance upon a mysterious shadow organization that killed his wife and son in the new series "Ninja Kamui," premiering Saturday, February 10 at midnight ET/PT on Adult Swim's famed action/anime programming block Toonami. The series comes from "God of High School" and "Jujutsu Kaisen" director Sunghoo Park, whose anime feature "Jujutsu Kaisen 0" is Japan's 14th highest grossing Japanese-produced film in history.

An explosive story of revenge, "Ninja Kamui" follows a former ninja clan member who is haunted by the brutal murders of his family. Meanwhile, an FBI agent and his rookie partner also work to investigate the murders and uncover a vast global conspiracy.

"'Ninja Kamui' is a gripping action series about a hero hell-bent on payback. The ninja of old Japan has been reimagined for the near future," said Park. "I hope fans will enjoy the intense fight scenes and the human drama with unique characters."

"Ninja Kamui" features original character designs by Takashi Okazaki ("AFRO SAMURAI") and a new song from Japanese band coldrain. It is produced by E&H production ("MONSTERS 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation") and SOLA ENTERTAINMENT ("Lord of The Rings: War of The Rohirrim," "Blade Runner: Black Lotus").

A videogame adaptation entitled "Ninja Kamui: Shinobi Origins" will also arrive in spring 2024.

New episodes of "Ninja Kamui" will be available the next day on Max.
