Granbelm Original Anime Previews Anna in Character Promo Video

The official website for the Granbelm original anime series began streaming the fifth video in a seven-part series of promotional videos titled "Fragment of Emotion" on Tuesday. The website is revealing one new video every day for seven consecutive days, each focusing on a different character. Previous videos focused on Kuon, Nene, Rosa, and Suishō. The new video focuses on Anna Hugo.

The anime will premiere on July 5 in the "Animeism" programming block on MBS, TBS, and BS-TBS.

The anime stars:

The anime takes place in a world that long ago featured the existence of magic, but has long since lost that ability. The story begins when the very normal high school student Mangetsu Kohinata meets Shingetsu Ernesta Fukami, who has migrated back to Japan from Germany, on a night with a full moon.

Masaharu Watanabe (Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-, Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Memory Snow, Wakaba Girl) is directing the series at Nexus (Wakaba Girl, Chivalry of a Failed Knight). Jukki Hanada (Sound! Euphonium, Love Live! School idol project, Love Live! Sunshine!!) is overseeing the series scripts and Shinichirou Otsuka (Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- light novel illustrator) is designing the original characters. Infinite is producing the anime. Eir Aoi is performing opening theme song "Tsuki o Ou Mayonaka" (Following the Moon in the Middle of the Night), and Uru is performing the anime's ending theme song "Negai" (Wish).
