The world ends with you: animation It was one of the biggest surprises before Anime Expo Lite, and now we finally have more details on the next release! According to the special reveal presentation featuring those who worked on the original title from several years ago, the team behind the original The world ends with you The video game is fully compatible with the new anime. We also got some juicy details on what we can expect from the new anime and it’s heading towards a worldwide release in 2021. You can also check out the debut trailer in the video above!
For fans familiar with the original title, they are in luck, as it is confirmed that the original Japanese voice cast will return for the new anime. According to the original game’s composer (who is also re-composing for the new anime), this new anime will feature new music specifically made for the series. As he explained, it was a reflection of how he has aged and he wanted to reflect that in his work while retaining the flavor and personality of the original score.
Turns out this is something they’ve been waiting for since the game’s original development began in 2006. Considering the amount of anime for cross promotions, this particular release took so long because anime doesn’t tend to come out before games, according to the producer behind the original The world ends with you game.
Kazuya Ichikawa (Bakugan: Battle Planet, Monster Strike) is confirmed to be the director of the anime, and incorporates some 3DCG into the usual animations. Midori Goto will be scriptwriter for the new series and Tetsuya Nomura’s original character designs, and the series studio will be DOMERICA x SHIN-EI Animation. The first teaser in the series features a stylish animated look for the fan-favorite video game, but we’ll have to wait until 2021 to see even more!
