Two Key Visuals Unveiled For “Girls’ Last Tour” Anime


Something tells me that this one won’t always be bright and sun-shiney.

Earlier today, the Girls’ Last Tour (Shōjo Shūmatsu Ryokō) anime’s official Twitter account unveiled a pair of visuals for the series. The first features Chito and Yuuri in the dark beside their tank, as they gaze at the ruins of humanity. The second shows the two girls in their tank, which is parked in a grimy industrial setting.

Takaharu Ozaki (Persona 5 the Animation -The Day Breakers-) will direct Girls’ Last Tour at White Fox, with Mai Toda (Matoi the Sacred Slayer, Holy Knight) providing character designs. Kazuyuki Fudeyasu (Tantei Opera Milky Holmes, Yatterman Night) is in charge of series composition.

The series will star Inori Minase as Chito and Yurika Kubo as Yuuri.

Kadokawa describes the title as:

The popular running dystopian fantasy manga from the web comic portal Kurage Bunch will be adapted into an anime!
Long time has passed since the prosperity and civilization of the humanity has collapsed. Most of the humans and animals have died and the world is facing its end.

The complex city structure resembles a labyrinth. No one is maintaining the machines anymore, so they also stop functioning one after another.
When did everything end, or since when has everything started ending? This story takes place in such a world which everyone has even stopped thinking about that.

Two girls, Chito and Yuuri, are wandering this world with their vehicle Kettenkrad.
The beginning of a heartwarming story in the apocalyptic world…

Tsukumizu’s Girls’ Last Tour manga kicked off in on Shinchosha’s Kurage Bunch website in 2014. To date, five compiled volumes have been released, with the most recent hitting retailers on September 8. Yen Press currently holds the domestic rights to the manga series.
