Gekijouban Anime Nintama Rantaro Ninjutsu Gakuen Zenin Shutsudo! no Dan (Theatrical Anime Nintama Rantaro: Ninja School Everyone Dispatch!) will open next March ahead of next summer’s live action movie. Tsutomu Shibayama, director of the current Nintama Rantao TV series, will direct the feature film. The Nintama Rantaro children’s adventure comedy adaptation of Soubee Amako’s manga premiered in 1993 and had a first anime feature in 1996.
