North American distributor Sentai Filmworks announced its first anime acquisition of the fall season on Twitter. The series in question is The Fruit of Grisaia, which is bound for select digital outlets (such as Crunchyroll), with a home video release to follow.
The Fruit of Grisaia, AKA Le Fruit de la Grisaia, is directed by Tensho (KENMOZA!, Tears to Tiara), with Hideyuki Kurata (Oreimo, The World God Only Knows) on series composition for the 8-Bit (Infinite Stratos) production.
Sentai’s synopsis:
Mihama Academy is less of a school and more of a prison. With a massive wall surrounding all sides, this private academy is both protected and isolated from the outside world. But while Mihama Academy may not seem appealing to your average student, it is a safe haven for those looking to hide from the various cruelties that life has dealt them. One such student is the stoic Yuji Kazami, whose closest shot at leading an ordinary high school life lies only within the walls of Mihama. But when Yuji transfers to this untraditional establishment he finds that his chance at “normal” may be further than he thought. As the first male in a school with only five female students, Yuji’s arrival threatens to disrupt the carefully crafted illusion of daily life at Mihama. And as Yuji begins to adapt to life in his new surroundings he soon learns that behind the innocent faces of his classmates hide secrets that are nearly as dark as Yuji’s own.
