What happens in the Rick and Morty: The Anime clip?
In the Rick and Morty: The Anime clip, a bunch of men in black suit can be seen making an ambush attack on the Smith family at their house. Featured in the video are Summer, Beth, Space Beth, and superhero version of Jerry, who are doing everything they can to fight off the goons. Noticeably absent from the clip are the anime versions of the titular duo.
“The multiverse-straddling exploits of Rick and the gang pose challenges to the family bond, but they always rise to the occasion,” creator Takashi Sano said in a previous statement. “It’s such a life affirming sight, and Jerry is no exception. I am honored to have been given an opportunity to tell a new story about this amazing family. I hope you enjoy their adventures!”
Rick and Morty: The Anime hails from creator Takashi Sano, Studio Deen, Sola Entertainment, and Telecom Animation Film. The series is expected to adapt themes and events of the main series. Rick Sanchez, Morty Smith, Beth Smith, Summer Smith, and Jerry Smith will be voiced by a Japanese cast consisting of Yōhei Tadano, Keisuke Chiba, Jun Irie, Akiha Matsui, and Manabu Muraji.
