Dance with Devils: Fortuna Theatrical Film to Have 6 Different Endings

The official website for Rejet and Elements Garden's Dance with Devils: Fortuna anime film announced on Wednesday that the film will have six different epilogues that will screen at different times. Each epilogue will focus on one of the six lead male characters: Rem, Lindo, Urie, Mage, Shiki, and Loewen.

Theatergoers will be able to buy tickets for all six versions of the film together in one illustrated ticket, pictured below. The ticket will go on sale at theaters on September 2.

The website also revealed designs for the previously announced new character Marius, voiced by Toshiyuki Toyonaga. The website describes Marius as a "masked storyteller" who watches Ritsuka and the others from afar.

The film will premiere in Japan on November 4.

The story centers on second-year high school student Ritsuka Tachibana. She lives a calm and unchanging life. Ritsuka's older brother Lindo returns from studying abroad in the United Kingdom. Shikō Academy student council president Rem Kaginuki calls on the girl, and she begins having mysterious encounters with the student council members. Her life changed a little from that day, but Ritsuka expected nothing more.

However, she comes home to find her mother collapsed with suspicious hooded men nearby. They were not human but devils, vampires, and exorcists seeking the Forbidden Grimoire. Ritsuka's former daily life crumbles around her, and she finds herself slowly becoming attracted to Rem, who helps her in her predicament. On the other hand, confusion deepens with regard to her brother who carries a secret. Ritsuka is unsure what path to choose as she finds herself at the center of a love story.

The new film will feature the same staff and cast as the television anime series. Rejet's Daisuke Iwasaki is in charge of the original plan, and Ai Yoshimura is directing the film at Brains Base. Tomoko Konparu is writing the script, and Yuka Takashina is adapting Hirotaka Maeda's original character designs for animation. Elements Garden is composing the music, and Elements Garden's Junpei Fujita and DIVE II Entertainment are producing the music.

The film will star:

• Himika Akaneya as Ritsuka Tachibana
• Sōma Saitō as Rem Kaginuki
• Wataru Hatano as Lindo Tachibana
• Takashi Kondō as Urie Sogami
• Subaru Kimura as Mage Nanashiro
