Visual Prison, the upcoming anime by A-1 Pictures, is ready to personify everything that the visual kei music genre stands for.
If you are a fan of androgynous clothing, goth aesthetic, and heavy punk/metal music, you’ve come to the right place because this anime aims to satiate your every visual kei desire and more.
The Visual Prison anime is set to premiere this October with awesome music that will reflect on its genre.
Since the anime will feature several bands, it’s no surprise that it will have multiple songs to offer. Its theme songs will also be performed by the bands that will be shown in the main story.
The opening theme song of the anime, “Zankoku Shangri-la,” will be performed by the band Oz. Another in-story band, Los†Eden, will be performing the ending theme song, “Bloody Kiss.”

“Gyokuza no Gemini” is the theme song of Visual Prison and it will be performed by the Eclipse band. Eclipse is also performing the song “Guilty†Cross” which has been featured in the latest trailer of the series.
This gothic anime that mixes visual kei with vampires also contains its own gothic mascot! Panya, which seems like a weird mix-up of a panda and a cat, will be voiced by none other than Tomokazu Sugita, the voice actor of Gintoki.
