The official website for the live-action films of Hideaki Sorachi’s Gintama manga posted a teaser video the upcoming sequel film Gintama 2 (Kari) (Gintama 2 (Working Title)).
The first film opened in Japan last July, and it earned 980 million yen (US$8.9 million) in its first four days.
The film also inspired a live-action net show that debuted on Docomo’s dTV streaming service one day after the film’s opening.
The manga has more than 50 million copies in print in Japan.
