Rail Wars! Action Anime's Key Visual, Summer Premiere Unveiled

The official website for the anime adaptation of Takumi Toyoda's Rail Wars! -Nihon Kokuyū Tetsudō Kōantai- (Rail Wars! Japanese National Railways Security Force) light novel series posted the first key visual on Saturday. It also confirmed that the series will premiere on television this summer.

The "dream railway paradise entertainment" story is set in a parallel world where Japan did not privatize its national railways. Naohito Takayama is an ordinary high school boy who dreams of a comfortable future working for the top-rated Japanese National Railways. He is assigned as a trainee in the Railways Security Force full of odd characters such as Sakurai, a troublemaker who hates men. On top of that, an extremist group called "RJ" plots to privatize the Japanese National Railways.

Toyoda launched the series with illustrations by Vania 600 last year.
