The 10th anniversary Cencoroll broadcast on Tokyo MX debuted a Cencoroll TV edit version of the anime on Wednesday. The official Twitter account also revealed that another announcement is slated for this year, and that it will have news to share on the Cencoroll project in March.
Aniplex had previously teased that the 10th anniversary broadcast would be the "relaunch of the Cencoroll project."
Uki (Digimon Adventure tri., tsuritama) directed, wrote, designed, and animated the first Cencoroll project himself, and it had its world premiere at Canada's Fantasia 2009 festival. It also played in Tokyo, Osaka, and New York at the New York Anime Film Festival. ryo from supercell composed the music.
A sequel, Cencoroll 2, was slated to open in summer 2014, but the website says its still in production.
The first Cencoroll theatrical anime short's story begins when a giant monster sends a town's citizens into a panic — except for a girl named Yuki and her schoolmate Tetsu. Tetsu happens to have his own strange creature named Cenco as a pet. Another boy named Shū controls the monster threatening the town, and the stage is set for a battle.
