The official website and Twitter account for the live-action stage play adaptation of Yuji Kaku's Jigokuraku (Hell's Paradise: Jigokuraku) manga has announced that the play will be getting a second show titled, Butai Jigokuraku - Owari no Sho - (Stage Play Jigokuraku - The Last Chapter -), in February 2024.
Tsubasa Kizu is reprising his role as Gabimaru.
VIZ Media publishes the manga in English as HELL’S PARADISE: JIGOKURAKU and describes it as:
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.
The stage play is scheduled to run at the Theater 1010 in Tokyo from February 15-18, 2024, then at Cool Japan Park TT Hall from February 23-25, 2024.
