Crunchyroll have announced that an anime series based on the mixed media project from Kamitsubaki Studio, Kamitsubaki City Under Construction, is coming to the platform this July.
The multimedia project already consists of a tabletop game, rhythm action and visual novel games on consoles, mobile and PC as well as numerous promotional songs and videos.
As expected from a series of this nature, the character designs look appealing and in keeping with the singing theme, the director of the popular BanG Dream! series, Koudai Kakimoto is helming as director and writer. Music will be delivered by the Vtuber unit V.W.P. (Virtual Witch Phenomenon).
Synopsis:
Seven years after humanity was devastated by a major disaster, a beacon of science and prosperity rises in Kamitsubaki City. But lurking in its shadows are Tesseractor, monsters born from human darkness. Only the Witchling, five girls with voices that wield magic, stand against them. With every note, they fight, not just to protect the peace of the city, but to heal a broken world.
