Earlier today, an official website and Twitter account opened to announce that Mado Nozaki’s Babylon novels will receive an anime TV series. A teaser trailer and visual for the project, as well as details on the production company were revealed.
We break the details down below.
Trailer
The 86-second promo flies through a series of computer visuals, highlighting various nations, and flying through visuals of topics that include assisted suicide. All the while, a deep-voiced narrator discusses the core concepts behind the show. The teaser ends on the show’s key visual.
Visual
The new visual features a mysterious raven-haired woman, seated on a throne in a colorful palace. The image was drawn by Zain, who illustrated for the novels.
Production
Studio Revoroot is producing the series, with Twin Engine serving as a general producer.
