Earlier today, the official Fate/EXTRA Last Encore anime website updated with a new visual. The jumbo-sized image features Saber of Red (Nero Claudius) reaching out to the male version of Hakuno Kishinami.

Fate/Extra Last Encore will hit Japanese TV “next winter”. The series will adapt the Fate/Extra series of video games.

Akiyuki Shinbo (Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Bakemonogatari) will direct the project at studio Shafe, with Masaaki Takiyama (Nyaruko: Crawling with Love! Season 2, Tokyo ESP) providing character designs. Fate/stay night creator Kinoko Nasu is in charge of series composition.

Other confirmed crew members include:

• Series Director: Yukihiro Miyamoto
• Music: Satoru Kousaki
• Original Game: Marvelous & Type-Moon

The Fate/Extra games first hit Sony’s PSP in July 2010. Aksys Games released the game in North America in November 2011. The title was followed up by companion game Fate/Extra CCC, which features an opening movie directed by Shinbo at Shaft.
