The King's Game series by Renda Hitori and Kanazawa Nobuaki continues to be talked about this summer… While on July 31, we announced its anime adaptation for the fall of 2017, today, another major news has fallen… And in pictures please!
We're not going to go there by four paths… Because you must be eager to enjoy these first unpublished images of the future King's Game The Animation. So we let you enjoy with a hint of hemoglobin…
A charadesign that differs from the manga and that could well surprise more than one. The opening 「Feed the Fire」 is performed by the J-rock band Coldrain, known for its Japanese-American leader and rhythms flirting between rock, metal and hard-rock. A band that sticks well to these few King's Game images!
Thanks to this teaser, we can also reveal the members of the technical staff:
- Animation studio: Seven (Strange+, Recorder to Randoseru Do♪)
- Director: Noriyoshi Sasaki (Okusama ga Seitokaichou! S2, Ojisan to Marshmallow)
- Scriptwriter: Kenji Konuta (Ace of Diamond, Saiyuki Reload Blast)
- Character Designer: Yousuke Itou
Synopsis reminder
Nobuaki is woken up in the middle of the night by a strange text message that challenges two of his high school classmates to kiss. The mysterious sender of the message claims that the entire class is participating in a "King's Game". Day after day, the challenges follow one another, and the high school students are forced to face the facts: they have 24 hours to execute and the penalty in case of disobedience is death.
Suicides or murders? Occult or criminal power of flesh and blood? Wherever they are, whatever they try to escape, death comes to find its young victims, infallible. The cleaver is getting dangerously close to our heroes… Will they be able to discover the truth before it falls?
1 class, 32 students, 24 hours to obey. Only one punishment: death.
Spring: Ki-oon
And if you do not want to miss any announcements, trailers, or next orders of the King, we strongly advise you for your safety to follow the news on the official twitter of the anime, but also on the official Japanese website !
