CloverWorks’ upcoming original anime, Tokyo 24th Ward, has already caused a stir among otakus. Not only does its plot tease some good old mystery, but it also has three dashing protagonists.
Although these MCs have nothing in common, they have to cooperate if they want to save their beloved 24th ward. As an original anime, the series has untapped potential. Will it live up to our expectations?
The Tokyo 24th Ward anime will be released on January 5, 2022, with a one-hour special first episode.
The new trailer reveals the plot of the anime.
The PV makes it even more clear how drastically different Ran, Koki, and Shuta are. Their lifestyles and habits are entirely at odds with each others’. So when they have to work together, obviously there are more than a few clouts.
Yet, what binds them is their love for their ward. If they want to protect the neighborhood from unprecedented disasters, they need to buckle up and brainstorm together.
The trailer also features the ending theme song of the anime, “255,255,255.” The song is performed by Junya Enoki, Yuma Uchida, and Kaito Ishikawa, the cast members behind Shuta, Ran, and Koki.
Tokyo 24th Wards’ concept looks fresh, with CloverWorks’ animation style working wonders for it. Will it steal the attention in the upcoming anime season? Only if these handsome heroes learn to keep their calm.
