Watch The First BLADE Anime Teaser

Yes, that is Blade as in the Marvel comic series Blade or, if you prefer, the character portrayed on the big screen by Wesley Snipes.

Marvel is continuing their far reaching deal with Japanese animation studio Madhouse - who have already produced anime versions of Iron Man, X-Men and Wolverine - with an upcoming series devoted to everyone's favorite vampire hunter.

The series premieres in Japan on July 1 and the first teaser has just arrived. Early days yet but I can't help but notice that there is a lot more motion graphic in this teaser than there is actual animation and I hope that's not an indicator of what's to come. Check it below.
