- Studio: Science Saru
- Director: Mokochan
- Writer: Toh Enjo
- Character Design and Animation Direction: Shuhei Handa
- Year: 2026
I’m kinda hyped. If this delivers on the old artstyle, with modern production value, it’s going to be a gorgeous anime.
I looked a bit in the names of the Studio, Director and Writer to see what they previously did and what sort of scores those things got on MAL.
- Science Saru
- Dandadan (8.50)
- Dandadan 2nd Season (8.46)
- Yojouhan Time Machine Blues (8.18)
- Mokochan
- Dandadan (8.50)
- Yojouhan Time Machine Blues (8.18)
- Heike Monogatari (7.79)
- Toh Enjo
- Space☆Dandy 2nd Season (8.26)
- Space☆Dandy (7.89)
- Shisha no Teikoku (6.84)
- Shuhei Handa
- Dungeon Meshi (8.60)
- Gintama Movie 1: Shinyaku Benizakura-hen (8.52)
- One Punch Man (8.48)
Looks like a pretty good score spread over those with only “Shisha no Teikoku” getting a below 7 rating, the rest everything above or close to 8. With Shuhei Handa in the Position of which we got “Dungeon Meshi” and “One Punch Man”, this looks really promising
I’ll only add to this that Toh Enjoe is a famous Japanese scifi literature writer who has won one of Japan’s most prestigious literary awards, the Akutagawa Prize, as well as the 2012 Nihon SF Taisho award.
I’m not sure that his Space Dandy episodes are my favorites in that series, but it’ll be cool to see what he comes up with in the world of GitS.
Nice, good work

It can’t be much worse than that Netflix reboot anyway…
