The official YouTube channel for Netflix Anime has started streaming a main trailer for the season 1 of the upcoming anime Rising Impact. The clip features the anime's theme song "gifted" performed by four-piece Japanese rock band Blue Encount . Blue Encount was formed in 2004, and has provided theme songs for Gintama , Mobile Suit Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans , My Hero Academia , and Mix Meisei Story . The band's vocalist/guitarist Shunichi Tanabe says, "Rising Impact unleashed after 25 years. The great honor of singing the theme song, we were able to take on the challenge with as much passion as Gawain's straightforwardness. In this day and age when we ask ourselves daily about our 'individuality,' what kind of 'gift=talent' do we as human beings have? With 'gifted,' I feel we were able to write our own answer. I hope this song will be food for your soul." Blue Encount profile photo...

Ayumi Fujino (voiced by Yuumi Kawai) is in elementary school and has a great talent for drawing manga. Her 4 panel manga is featured in the school's paper and everyone enjoys it. She finds herself challenged by a truant shut in, Kyomoto (voiced by Mizuki Yoshida), who starts to have her own 4 panel manga featured in the paper. Kyomoto shows technical skill far above Fujino, but Fujino isn't going to back down. Over the course of their lives the two go from butting heads, to teaming up, to going their separate ways, until Fujino, later in life as a noted manga artist, hears shocking news about Kyomoto.
Look Back is based on Tatsuki Fujimoto's popular one shot manga, which was published in 2021. Written and directed by Kiyotaka Oshiyama at Studio Durian, the movie will premiere in Japan on June 28, 2024.

Kiyotaka Oshiyama, director of the upcoming anime film adaptation of Tatsuki Fujimoto’s one-shot manga Look Back, hinted that he is aiming to create the film differently from the manga.
In his comment, Oshiyama acknowledged the similarities in the creative processes between animators/animation directors and manga artists, saying that they approach their works in an identical manner.
He further elaborated on his personal connection to the story, stating, he could resonate with Fujimoto’s inspiration to create Look Back. And because of this, Oshiyama felt that he could create a movie adaptation of the work, which he could personally relate to.
“When I read manga, I was not only deeply moved by the story, but I also resonated with the passion of Tatsuki Fujimoto, the author of Look Back. That’s why I felt that I could make this into a film that I could personally relate to.”

The Series: "Space Dandy"
Where You Can Stream It: Crunchyroll
The Pitch: "It's the new show by Shinichiro Watanabe." That's all people needed to get excited for "Space Dandy," a series pitched as a spiritual successor to anime classics "Cowboy Bebop" and "Samurai Champloo." "Bebop" defined the adolescence of American anime fandom with its stylish, sad storytelling on Adult Swim in 2001. Since then, the runaway success of "Attack on Titan" on streaming services in 2013 transformed anime into an international hitmaker. Popular American cartoons like "Steven Universe" borrowed from anime, and their artists would say as much in interviews. Now one of the medium's greatest producers and auteurs, after years of toil behind the scenes, was ready to blow everybody away with an all-new vision.

One of the most anticipated anime series of the year is finally here. Acclaimed animation studio Mappa adapts Tatsuki Fujimoto‘s massively popular series, bringing its quirky blend of humor and ultra-violence to the small screen. If the premiere episode is any indicator, expect a wild and extremely gory road ahead for the inaugural season of Chainsaw Man.
Denji (Kikunosuke Toya) isn’t your average teen. Not only has his father’s debt left him in an impoverished state, where he’s selling his body parts to pay it off, but he’s also made a pact with an adorable chainsaw devil, Pochita (Shiori Izawa). When not selling off his bits and possessions to survive, Denji earns cash selling the corpses of other devils. When Denji gets betrayed and left for dead, he gets a second chance when he’s revived as “Chainsaw Man” – a man with a devil’s heart.
