Spring 2019 Anime: Official Twitter Hashtags & Pages
That was it for the first season of 2019. Many good titles graced our screens, but if we want to be honest, there are too many series in the new season we have been waiting for quite a long time.
GARO series’ theatrical anime Usuzumizakura -Garo- will open in Japanese cinemas in October 2018. It has been announced that Masei Nakayama, Romi Park, and Akiko Yajima are some of the great talents who have been cast for this movie.
Usuzumizakura -Garo-, based on a manga by Keita Amemiya, is an anime series spin-off of the tokusatsu series Garo. It takes place during the Heian period, the same time as the 2015 TV anime Garo: Guren no Tsuki. The sad but beautiful revenge play begins when the two onmyoji meet.
Masakazu Katsura (Tiger ＆ Bunny, Video Girl Ai) is in charge of the title’s character design. Yasuko Kobayashi (JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, Attack on Titan) is handling the script. Hajime no Ippo‘s Satoshi Nishimura is to direct over at studio VOLN (Ushio and Tora). Usuzumizakura -Garo- will be produced by Studio M2 (Onihei Hankachou).
