Shueisha announced in the 8th issue of Weekly Shonen Jump magazine that Yūji Kaku's Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku manga is inspiring a TV anime adaptation.
Yūji Kaku's comment on the anime announcement:
An anime adaptation! ... it makes me so happy but, it hasn't really sunk in yet and it feels like a dream. To all the anime staff, I leave the characters of Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku in your capable hands. Lord Reality, if this is a dream, please do not wake me up.
VIZ Media publishes the manga in English and describes the first volume as:
Even an invincible ninja may not be able to survive Hell’s Paradise!
Gabimaru the Hollow is one of the most vicious assassins ever to come out of the ninja village of Iwagakure. He’s ruthlessly efficient, but a betrayal results in him being handed a death sentence. He has only one hope—in order to earn his freedom, he must travel to a long-hidden island and recover an elixir that will make the shogun immortal. Failure is not an option. On this island, heaven and hell are just a hair’s breadth away.
