The movie released in Jul/2022.
This is the 2nd live-action film based on a popular manga.
Although the story of the original manga and anime series has moved on, this 2nd live-action film depicts the younger days of Li Xin (Yamazaki Kentro), who supports the future First Emperor Ying Zheng(Yoshizawa Ryo) militarily, and this film mainly depicts the battle to rise from a single soldier to a hundred generals.
In the first film, Ying Zheng and He Liao Diao(Hashimoto Kanna), who had many scenes in the 1st film, do not appear in most of the scenes, and most of the scenes in this film are battle scenes. Qiang Lei(Seino Nana)'s sword fight scene is full of power with wire action like in Hong Kong movies, and the clash scene between large armies is also full of power with VFX technology naturally woven into the scene.
In addition to Qiang Lei, Biao Gong(Toyokawa Etsushi) and Lü Buwei (Sato Koichi) also appear in this film.
The next film will be released next year, and it will be interesting to see who will play the many characters who appeared in the original work in the future.
