About Sakugan
Sacks&Guns!! is an upcoming Japanese anime television series produced by Satelight. It is an adaptation of the novel Sakugan Labyrinth Marker, written by Nekotaro Inui.
It follows the journey of curious nine-year-old Memenpu and her father, Gaganba, who is not good at anything. One day, Memempuu pleads with Gaganbar, a cave examiner who makes maps of the internal part of Labyrinth, to go travel together with her to find her mother.
As a “marker,” Gaganbar holds the most dangerous yet attractive profession. The area outside the colony is deemed to be dangerous and meeting a huge mysterious creature that loiters the cave, one’s chance of living cuts down to five percent.
Since it is a dangerous racket to explore the unknown world, the map they hold is valuable and can be sold at a high price. However, is the price for their curiosity higher? What could be the cruel truth that is hidden among them? What awaits at the end of the test
