Yomiuri TV's animation brand "ytv animation" has announced that it will be holding a stamp rally giveaway campaign on the data broadcasting of "Shin Samurai Den YAIBA" and "Detective Conan" from April 5th.

"Shin Samurai Den YAIBA" will be broadcast every Saturday at 5:30 pm starting from April 5th on the Yomiuri TV/Nippon TV network. The same network also broadcasts "Detective Conan" every Saturday at 6 pm, and from April 5th Saturday evenings will be the "Gosho Aoyama Hour", where two anime works based on Aoyama's original works will be broadcast consecutively, so a giveaway campaign will be held. If you watch 10 minutes of either "Shin Samurai Den YAIBA" or "Detective Conan", you will receive a stamp from each program. You can enter for a giveaway depending on the number of stamps you collect from both programs, or from each program.

The giveaways include "Conan x Yaiba illustration shikishi" and a reprint of the "YAIBA BOX", as well as YAIBA goods (clear multi-case and flake stickers), Conan goods (flat pouch and die-cut stickers), and original design QUO cards. Applications will be accepted from 5:30 pm on April 5th to June 22nd.

"YAIBA" is a swordplay action manga that was serialized in "Weekly Shonen Sunday" (Shogakukan) from 1988 to 1993, before Aoyama began serializing "Detective Conan". It depicts the exploits of Yaiba Kurogane, an unconventional young swordsman who trains in the jungle with his father. The story follows Yaiba, who returns to Japan by chance and strives to become even stronger in his new training ground... This is the story. A total of 24 volumes of the comic have been released, with a total circulation of approximately 17 million copies.

The new anime will be fully supervised by the original author, Aoyama, and will be fully animated about 30 years after its completion. Following on from the TV anime "Yaiba: The Legend of Swordsman" that aired from 1993 to 1994, Minami Takayama will play the main character, Yaiba. It will be produced by WIT STUDIO, known for "Attack on Titan" and "SPY×FAMILY".
