The TV anime " Gachiakuta ", based on the manga by Kei Urana currently being serialized in "Weekly Shonen Magazine" (Kodansha), will be broadcast on the CBC TV/TBS anime slot "Agaru Anime" from July 6th. The battle action series stars an orphan boy named Rudo as its protagonist, and its catchphrase is "Crawl out of the abyss! All for the sake of changing this shitty world!!" It will be directed by Fumihiko Suganuma, who has worked on "SHIROBAKO" and "THE FIRST SLAM DUNK", and produced by Bones Films, which also produced "My Hero Academia".
The series began serialization in February 2022 in Weekly Shonen Magazine. Hideyoshi Ando is in charge of the graffiti design. The story follows Rudo, an orphan boy born in a slum where the descendants of criminals live. He makes a living using his extraordinary physical abilities, but one day he is framed for a crime he did not commit and thrown into the "abyss" that even the people of the slums fear. The series won the Global Special Award in the comics category of the Next Manga Awards 2022.
The subtitle of the first episode is "Heaven". The boy Ludo breaks into a waste dump as usual, searching for trash that can still be used. He finds a stuffed animal there and goes to give it as a gift to Chiwa, a girl he secretly loves. But on his way home, Ludo sees an unbelievable sight... That's the story.
