The TV anime "Seraph of the End," which will start in April, ran a 15-page ad with a newly-drawn illustration in the April 4 morning edition of the Asahi Shimbun newspaper (nationwide).

Seraph of the End" is an anime work based on a manga serialized in JUMP SQ. (original story: Takaya Kagami, manga: Yamamoto Yamato, story structure: Daisuke Furuya). It is a dark fantasy set in a world where the population has been drastically reduced by an unknown virus and the world is threatened by vampires. The original comic series has sold more than 1.8 million copies. The staff for the animated version includes Daisuke Tokudo as first-time director, Masashi Hizuka as assistant director, Koji Seko as series composition and script writer, Satoshi Kadowaki as character designer, and other members of the production team from the hit "Shinkage no Kyojin" series. The animation is produced by WIT STUDIO, which also produced "Shinkage no Kyojin," and will be broadcast over a total of two seasons, starting in April and October.

In preparation for the broadcast, which will begin at 10:00 p.m. on April 4, a 15-page ad was placed in the morning edition of the Asahi Shimbun newspaper (nationwide) on the same day. The ads were illustrated by Satoshi Kadowaki, who is in charge of character design. The Tokyo edition (for the Kanto, Tohoku, and Koshinetsu regions) features the main character Yuichiro Momoya, who has joined the Japanese Imperial Demon Army and is based in Tokyo fighting vampires. The Osaka edition (Kinki, Shikoku, and Chugoku regions) features another main character, Mikaela Momoya, who lives in a vampire city in the Kansai region (Kyoto) and is looking for Yuichiro. The Nagoya headquarters version (target regions: Tokai) + Hokkaido branch office + Western headquarters (Kyushu-Okinawa) is Ichise Guren of the Ichise family, an organization in Nagoya. In addition, the design, which utilizes the momentum of the line drawings as they are, was created by the Tsuyoshi Kusano Design Office.


Overseas development of this work is also underway. It has already been distributed in North America, UK, Germany, Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, China, and South Korea at the same time as in Japan.
