ippatu’s post-apocalyptic action manga Tsugumi Project is getting the anime treatment, with a TV adaptation officially announced today alongside a teaser promotional video and visual
EAST FISH STUDIO is producing the series under director Osamu Honma, with Yoko Yonaiyama handling screenwriting and Haruka Sagawa serving as character designer. The teaser PV was published to NBCUniversal Anime/Music’s YouTube channel to mark the announcement
An official website at toratsugumi.jp and an X account under the handle @toratsugumi_PJ both launched today as part of the reveal
The initial cast includes Runa Nakashima, Tomo Nakai, and Tomohiko Imai. A follow-up update has since added seventeen more cast members, with a new visual and trailer released alongside them
Tsugumi Project follows Leon, a soldier of fortune falsely convicted of a crime who is dropped into a region once known as Japan, now sealed off from the outside world for over two centuries after nuclear war. Leon and his fellow convicts have one year to track down a weapon known only by the codename TORATSUGUMI in exchange for their freedom. The ruined region is populated by irradiated monsters and a half-human, taloned girl who crosses paths with Leon on his mission
The manga first appeared in France through publisher Ki-oon in July 2019 before Kodansha’s Weekly Young Magazine picked up serialization in Japan starting January 25, 2021. The run concluded on September 15, 2023, with the seventh and final compiled volume releasing in Japan that November. Kodansha USA, which licensed the English edition at Anime Expo 2022, published its own final volume last September 30
No premiere window has been confirmed yet for the TV series
