Jump SQ announced that Tatsuya Fujiwara (Death Note's Light Yagami) had been confirmed to play as the powerful Shishio Makoto in the two upcoming RUROUNI KENSHIN live action films. Directed by Keishitomo (Ry maden), it will premiere on Summer 2014.



The two films will be entitled "RUROUNI KENSHIN: THE GREAT KYOTO FIRE ARC" and "RUROUNI KENSHIN: THE END OF A LEGEND ARC". TAKERU SATO (Kamen Rider Den-O) will be reprising his role from the first film as Kenshin Himura.
