Animation studio Yaoyorozu announced on Sunday a television anime project titled Kemurikusa, directed by Tatsuki, who helmed the Kemono Friends anime series. The announcement was made at the Yaoyorozu Kinkyuu Talk Event at Alta Theater in Shinjuku, Tokyo.

Kemurikusa is a science fiction action title depicting girls who fight creatures called "insects" in a world blanketed in red fog. The series is an expansion of Tatsuki's original anime production of the same name, which received an award at the 24th CG Animation Contest in 2012. The original 28-minute production is available on YouTube in two parts.

Production of Kemurikusa's television anime was first teased at Comiket 93 in December. A teaser visual for a new anime project was released at the event by Tatsuki's independent animation group irodori.

Boy the CG still looks as horrible as it was in Kemono Friends

Maybe because those are clips from the short film made 4 years before Kemono Friends xd

Kemono Friends wasn't even that bad from a design perspective. It's unique, dreamy atmosphere was definitely more fun to watch than most of the A1 Pictures or moeshit coming out. Even if it was really low budget, the environment really stuck with me.

The PV is made around 2012 not recently.

But on topic: I am looking forward to this because the director did do a good job with Kemono Friends and the other work was fine... so I'm pretty much anticipated for this.

Fuck yeah, let's do this. Fuck Kadokawa.

Yeah, also the fact that he has a lot of people backing him up more than Kadokawa says enough as well.

Kadokawa was part of the committee and directly involved but to put it only on them in that regard is crazy when the committee was this one:

TV Tokyo
Age Global Networks
AT-X
SYS
Crunchyroll
Victor Entertainment
Jinmyakku
Kadokawa Shoten
Just Pro
Docomo Anime Store
Bushiroad

Shame what happened with Kemono S2. Hopefully this becomes more successful, though I am personally pissed he won't be involved in Kemono S2 because I loved that show. Kind of a tough situation. Hope the best for both series, but the ugly side of the industry reared its head in this situation.

Why is the amateur ONA not registered on this website despite the fact its author is a professional ?

I'm glad Tatsuki is back making anime again. But I'm still pissed that he won't be involved in season 2 of Kemono Friends. #FuckKadokawa.

Well, this is something to look forward to that's for sure.

Same director as Kemono Friends ?!

I hope it is not as bad

Normally I'd probably skip something with a synopsis like that but Kemono Friends turned out to be one of the most surprising hidden gems I've ever seen so I guess I should check this out too
