Warner Bros Animation dropped a new trailer for Batman Ninja vs Yakuza League and it looks to be crazier than ever.
The trailer opens with a literal storm of Yakuza assassins falling from the sky. If you need an indication exactly what kind of movie you will be getting, there is nothing better than seeing weaponized assassins raining down on an entire city.
Batman and Damian Wayne Robin rush to stop the assassins only to be blocked by… Green Lantern?!
Breaking Down ‘Batman Ninja vs Yakuza League’
The latest preview seems to reveal much more about the movie’s plot. It seems that this takes place after Batman returned from his previous adventure in feudal Japan. Now he is faced with an alternate Earth where the Yakuza seem to have taken over.
We also get a snippet of the Yakuza leader talking about the multiverse. Apparently he plans to create an entire nation of Yakuza assassins. On paper, this plans seems unwise to have a whole country populated with untrustworthy killers. But then again, maybe I am the one missing something.
We also see the appearance of the Yakuza League: Aquaman, Green Lantern, and the Flash. Just as predicted previously, they seem to be a part of the Yakuza alternate Earth and not our own Justice League turned evil.
Interestingly, Wonder Woman does not seem to be a part of the Yakuza League. At one point, she is at the business end of Aquaman’s trident and she yells at him about he has changed. Is it possible that Batman has an ally in Wonder Woman?
There are also various shots of Nightwing and Red Hood trying to fight back the army of Yakuza assassins. Surprisingly, Ra’s al Ghul also appears. His inclusion is a shock to fans, since he was not promoted to be in the film. But I guess, if you are dealing with a plot to create a country of assassins, who better to confront them other than the leader of the League of Assassins?
