More details have emerged for the Magilumiere Co. Ltd. anime, including plans for an October 4, 2024 premiere. There’s also a new key visual and info on the opening song, which will have Mafumafu performing “Order Made.”
Here’s the new visual:
Earlier this year we got a look at the anime’s first full trailer.
The anime is being made at Moe and J.C. Staff, with Masahiro Hiraoka — who previously did CG direction for the second One-Punch Man television anime — helming the project as director. The person in charge of both writing and supervising the series scripts is Shingo Nagai of Uma Musume Pretty Derby Season 3 and Girly Air Force.
Credit for character design goes to Hidehiro Asama. Sound production is being handled by Masafumi Mima. The music is being composed by Makoto Miyazaki, who is known for working on One-Punch Man and SPY × FAMILY. Fairouz Ai plays Kana Sakuragi, and Yumiri Hanamori plays Hitomi Koshigaya.
The original manga—which debuted in October 2021 on the Shonen Jump+ service—is being published in English by MANGA Plus, and here is an official description for the plot:
“Magical Girl”? A profession that undertakes the work of exterminating a kind of natural disaster called “Kaii.” Kana Sakuragi, a female college student who struggles with job hunting, is picked up by a magical girl startup company and…?! Magical Girl work-life starts now!
VIZ Media is releasing it under a slightly different title — Magilumiere Magical Girls Inc. — starting this year, and they gave this description:
