Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League (ニンジャバットマン対ヤクザリーグ, Ninja Batman vs. Yakuza League) is an upcoming American-Japanese animated superhero film directed by Junpei Mizusaki and Shinji Takagi, written by Kazuki Nakashima, produced by Warner Bros., and animated by Kamikaze Douga and YamatoWorks, based on the DC Comics character Batman. It is the sequel to Batman Ninja (2018) and features Batman and his allies fighting to protect Gotham City from an invasion of yakuza-style criminals, led by an alternate version of the Justice League.

Plot

[edit]

Only a day after returning from the past, Batman and his allies discover that the world isn't quite the same as they left it. The entire island of Japan no longer exists and neither do the heroes of the Justice League. But before they can get a handle on what is going on, yakuza literally start raining from the skies.
