It's been 5 months since volume 10 of Nanae Chrono's Peace Maker Kurogane manga announced plans for a new anime adaptation of the samurai action manga without any further further details on the format, schedule or parties involved. Now, with the release of volume 11, WHITE FOX, of Re:Zero and Steins;Gate notoriety, has been attached to the anime.

The 2001 manga about historical Shinsengumi swordsman Tetsunosuke Ichimura, was released in North America by ADV and Tokyopop, while a 2003 Gonzo TV anime adaptation was released by ADV and FUNimation.
