The wait is almost over! The Haigakura anime will premiere this fall!

In the meantime, check out our earlier announcement of previously announced cast members:

The story is set in a mystical realm where deities and mortals coexist. Join Ichiyō and Tenkō as they embark on a quest to capture the escaped gods and save the realm from collapse.

The talented Junichi Yamamoto, known for his work on Armor Shop for Ladies & Gentlemen, More Than a Married Couple, But Not Lovers, and Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke’s Mansion, will be directing the anime at Typhoon Graphics. Yū Murai, who has scripted episodes 3, 5, 7, 10-11 of Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke’s Mansion, will be handling the series scripts. Character designer Masaki Satō, known for his work on Slam Dunk, Ultimate Muscle, and Record of Ragnarok, will be bringing the characters to life. Rounding out the team is music composer Yuki Kurihara, known for his work on Dropkick on My Devil!.

Originally serialized in Ichijinsha‘s Zero-Sum Ward magazine in 2008, the manga has continued on the Zero-Sum Online service since the magazine ceased publication in 2015. With over 1.3 million copies in circulation (including digital copies), Takayama’s Haigakura manga has cemented its place as a beloved series. Fans of Takayama’s other work, including Amatsuki, will be eager to see what this new anime adaptation has in store!
