The cute, energetic, and slightly unhinged world of CITY THE ANIMATION has released a brand new concept visual, once again featuring the mysterious mouse simply known as “God.”
Following on from three previous concept visuals, this one is titled “GOD GAMES,” and features the mascot in a retro computer landscape. As the post itself says:
“Games” are “fun!”
The “laughter,” “love” and “horror” of CITY are expressed in a world of “anything goes” games.
Tachi Ishidate (Violet Evergarden) directs CITY THE ANIMATION at studio Kyoto Animation, with character designs/chief animation direction by Tamami Tokuyama (Sound! Euphonium animation director) and art direction by Shiori Yamazaki. Instrumental band Piranhans provides the music.
The series is based on the manga CITY by Keiichi Arawi. Kodansha publishes an English-language translation both by the volume and on the K Manga app, describing the series thus:
From Keiichi Arawi, the adored creator of nichijou, this surreal-slapstick series revolves around a penniless college student, Midori Nagumo, who lives in an ordinary city filled with not-quite-ordinary people. And as this reckless girl runs about, she sets the city in motion.
