<h3 style="text-align: center">Sacks&;Guns!! Additional Staff and Cast Members Announced</h3>
<p>Earlier this week, the <a href="https://twitter.com/ANIMA_info" target="_blank" rel="noopener">official Twitter account</a> for Project Anima and ANN announced the additional staff and cast members for the upcoming anime Sacks&;Guns!! Based on Nekotarō Inui&#8217;s Sakugan Labyrinth Marker (Drilling Labyrinth Marker) light novel.</p>
<p>The original novel description via ANN reads:</p>
<blockquote><p>The distant future, long after the Western calendar is no longer used.</p>
<p>Humans live shoulder-to-shoulder, cramped in the &#8220;Labyrinth,&#8221; an underground world deep below the surface. There are many colonies where people live in the underground Labyrinth. The place is known for extreme high temperatures, but also for lodes of gold, silver, and other riches. In one of the colonies named Pin-in, a curious nine-year-old girl named Memenpu and her father Gagamba board a two-person work robot and mine for ore. They eke a living as the lowest of lowest &#8220;Worker&#8221; occupations. One day, Memenpu begs her father Gagamba to set out as Markers — those who chart the innards of the Labyrinth as a spelunker — to search for her mother who left their home.</p>
<p>If they encounter a &#8220;mysterious giant creature&#8221; lurking in the caves, the survival rate is less than 5%. Since discovering an unknown world is dangerous work, &#8220;maps&#8221; hold great value in the world of Labyrinth and fetch high prices on the market.</p>
<p>A Marker is the most dangerous, but also the most lucrative, job.</p>
<p>Gagamba decides he cannot hold back the ever-curious Memenpu from going off on her own countless times, and finally gives in. The two embark on a journey together in the work robot.</p>
<p>However, the &#8220;cost&#8221; of curiosity …</p>
<p>The &#8220;truth&#8221; they finally uncovered …</p>
<p>This is a father and daughter&#8217;s epic journey with the theme of family love.</p>
<p>The anime has been delayed to 2021, after being originally slated for a 2020 broadcast.</p></blockquote>
<p>Sacks&;Guns!! is set to premiere sometime in 2021, after its original 2020 broadcast delay.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center">Heaven&#8217;s Design Team New Trailer</h3>
<p>Earlier this week, <a href="https://www.ota-suke.jp/news/259448" target="_blank" rel="noopener">we received</a> a new TV promotional video for the upcoming TV anime Heaven&#8217;s Design Team based on the comedy manga written by Hebi-Zou and Tsuta Suzuki and illustrated by Tarako.</p>
<p>Kodansha serializes the original manga both in Japan and the U.S and describes it as such:</p>
<blockquote><p>In Heaven’s Animal Design Department, designers create a variety of new animals daily while contending with the unreasonable requests of their client: God. Funny, interesting, and full of useful information, this series answers questions such as, “Why can’t unicorns exist?”, “What makes an animal taste delicious?”, “What’s the most powerful creature in the ocean?”, and, “Bird versus snake: who would win?” You won’t believe it’s a manga series when you read up on the featured animals in the included encyclopedia entries. Heaven’s Design Team will make your next trip to the zoo or aquarium 100 times more fun!</p></blockquote>
<p>Heaven&#8217;s Design Team is directed by Sôichi Masui and features animation production by Asahi Production. The series is set to begin broadcasting in Japan on January 07, 2021.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center">What If the Ultimate in Fully Immersive VR RPGs Was a Crappier Game Than Reality Itself</h3>
<p>The <a href="https://fulldive-rpg.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">official website</a> for the upcoming anime based on Light Tuchihi&#8217;s light novel <em>What If the Ultimate in Fully Immersive VR RPGs Was a Crappier Game Than Reality Itself</em> recently announced that it will premiere in April 2021.</p>
<p>The anime&#8217;s description via ANN can be seen below:</p>
<blockquote><p>The story follows a dull high school student named Hiro Yūki (a double pun on &#8220;hero&#8221; and &#8220;heroism&#8221; in Japanese) when he is tricked into joining a full-dive (fully immersive VR) role-playing game. The game, Kiwame Quest (literally, &#8220;Ultimate Quest&#8221;), is promoted as &#8220;more real than reality&#8221; with mind-blowing graphics, impressive NPC behavior, and even the scent of foliage and the sensation of wind blowing against your skin.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the game is already a virtual ghost town, after being flooded with player complaints that the game is little too realistic for its own good. Its quests are nearly impossible to clear, since players have to be as physically fit to complete them as they would in real life. Players feel actual pain when they get hit, and puncture wounds takes days to heal.</p>
<p>The only reward is the mere sense of accomplishment. It is the complete opposite of a casual pick-up-and-play game, but Hiro vows to beat this most realistic (and most stressful) game ever.</p></blockquote>

Ryo, who often gets into trouble because of women, proposes kisses and dates to Ichika as a way of saying thank you, but he is rejected as &#8220;disgusting.&#8221; However, it opens a new door in Ryo&#8217;s mind, and he falls madly in love with her. Since that day, Ryo&#8217;s straightforward approaches and love expressions have continued every day. Ichika, who is totally uncomfortable with the situation, abuses him mercilessly, but he always receives it as a backhanded expression of her affection for him&#8230;</p></blockquote>
