This year's 46th issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine is revealing on Monday the Jump Special Anime Festa event will screen a "special anime" for Akira Amano's ēlDLIVE manga.
The manga is already getting a television anime adaptation in January.
Viz Media published the first three chapters of the manga in English digitally in September-October 2014 as part of its "Jump Start" initiative.
Amano (Reborn!) launched the series in full color on Shonen Jump+'s predecessor app Jump Live in August 2013. The manga switched to Shonen Jump+ when the app launched in September 2014. Shueisha published the manga's sixth compiled book volume on August 4. The "Amano Akira Illustrations Exhibition" event showcasing the author's artwork showed a collaboration mini anime video between ēlDLIVE and Reborn! in August.
Jump Special Anime Festa is also screening anime for: Boruto, Black Clover, My Hero Academia, Twin Star Exorcists, Gekijōban Ansatsu Kyōshitsu: 365-Nichi no Jikan, Food Wars! The Second Plate, and Isobe Isobee Monogatari: Ukiyo wa Tsurai yo.
