Details about the next online event for The world ends with you anime will be revealed on March 1, 2021 according to the official Twitter account for the show.
The event was first mentioned on February 5, 2021, in a tweet from the same account. It said that the event would be for fans from all over the world and would have an art exhibition and a preview of the first episode of The world ends with you: the animation. We have already seen a “rap version” of the opening sequence of the show, which features the song “TEENAGE CITY RIOT”, by ALI and rapper Creepy Nuts, R-Shitei.
It was also possible to watch part of the first episode when it aired in Japan on September 18, 2020. This was the start of a special event called The 7 Days Campaign that was hosted on the official Twitter account. It is not clear how much of what will be shown at the next event will be new material and never seen before.
The anime is based on Square Enix’s Nintendo DS game, The world ends with you. Shin-Ei is creating the animation, the same studio behind Doraemon and a newer studio that handled some of the 3D elements in Evangelion: 3.0. As with the game, Tetsuya Nomura will provide character designs. The game’s composer, Takeharu Ishimoto, will also be contributing.
The world ends with you: the animation is due to air in Japan sometime in April 2021. The world ends with you is immediately available for the Nintendo DS, as well as its Nintendo Switch port, The world ends with you: final mix.
