“As his classmates celebrate their middle school graduation, troubled Mirai is mired in darkness,” says the official description from VIZ. “But his battle is just beginning when he receives some salvation from above in the form of an angel. Now Mirai is pitted against 12 other chosen humans in a battle in which the winner becomes the next God of the world. Mirai has an angel in his corner, but he may need to become a devil to survive.”
Hideya Takahashi, who is best known for his work on JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind, is directing Platinum End. The anime adaptation will hail from the studio Signal.MD. Shinichi Inotsume will compose while Koji Oodate will handle character design.
