The Paradox Live 3rd Anniversary Fes. revealed the main staff and a teaser visual (pictured) for the Paradox Live the Animation on Monday. The anime series based on the multimedia project will debut in 2023.

Staff
Director: Naoya Andou (Aikatsu! episode director)
Series Composition, Script: Takayo Ikami (Mahou Shoujo Site)
Character Design: Kouji Haneda (Saihate no Paladin)
Studio: Pine Jam

Production company Avex Pictures and smartphone game developer GCREST launched the hip-hop multimedia project in November 2019. The project has since released eight singles and two albums. The first Paradox Live Dope Show live performance took place at Line Cube Shibuya last March, with the second held on May 28.

Synopsis
The Phantom Live movement was reborn in the near future as a result of the incredible saturation of hip-hop culture. Rappers wear accessories made of Phantom Metal, a metallic substance. They create illusions linked to their emotions through chemical reactions with their own DNA, driving young people insane with spectacular stage shows.

At the Paradox Live event, held at the legendary Club Paradox, four teams competed for supremacy: BAE, The Cat's Whiskers, cozmez, and Akanyatsura. Although cozmez won, the intensity of the battle won the hearts of legendary rappers Buraikan, sparking the start of a new event.

Buraikan then traveled throughout Japan to spread the word about the new event: "This event will determine who will become the next legendary artist. There is only one requirement for participation: you must be a Phantom Rapper. Your position and title are irrelevant. Let's go, everyone."

Beginning with this message, many intensely skilled contestants approached Buraikan, inspired by this message. Eight teams were chosen from among the best candidates. The fight is heating up, and the momentum will undoubtedly propel Phantom Live to new heights. Who will be the next iconic artist?

Wow, Pine Jam! Pine Jam can do some quality stuff, and I like that they try to focus on character acting (when they can). Although it's still hard to say how it'll turn out visually, I am more relieved to see Pine Jam than another studio that might be mainly known for alright to low quality visuals. The KV looks so hype! I wish the teaser video showed even just 3 seconds of animation, but looks like they are still at the beginning stages of the production. Can't wait to watch all the characters perform~

I don't know about Anne specifically, but they/them/their can be used in singular for one person. For example "Who is that person?" "Oh they are a famous actor." or "What are you going to give this person/name for their birthday?" "I'll give them a book." etc. (and no, Anne doesn't have a split personality as far as I know)

Yes, it is true. They stream their lives and music videos on Paradox Live Official Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/ParadoxLive/videos

I hope for more than 12-13 episodes! I like japanese rap songs so much!

Didn't the Japan get the fetish memo yet ? Tongues out and chokers are like, 20 years old news, lmao.

Also, i've checked their youtube channel, and as expected, low viewership, "band" based on how it looks, and not how they sing, a common occurrence in modern pop industry.

Thank you so much! There's still a lot of stuff to learn.

There was only one cameo during phase 1 and it was from Dongha (Leader of Amprule) in Hajun's past flashback, but Dongha came out when he was a baby.
The most the new groups would come out would probably be at the end of Temp 1 where Buraikan declares the creation of the current phase which is Road to Legend.

Gokuluck would go out for a 2nd season (if possible) that would be around the current stage that is Road To Legend (Remember that Gokuluck is one of the new groups along with Visty, Amprule and 1NM8 when the new stage was inaugurated)
