Sound design for this short promo animation. The overarching audio design style was to emphasise the characters movements, big fighting actions and bold titles that explode into motion.

All elements on screen are intensely hyped with larger than life sonic energy, creating a greater sense of impact and pace for the enthusiastic manga fan. This helps to hold attention whilst also staying true to hallmark classic sounds; ripping whooshes, huge punches and razor-sharp sword swings often found on anime productions.
