Six more days to go on Kickstarter! New Art Image and More!
Tokyo, Japan – Animation Production Company STUDIO 4℃ (Representative Director: Eiko Tanaka) has released news on Red Ash THE ANIMATION -Magicicada-, a Kickstarter project.
RED ASH is an innovative project by STUDIO4℃ and comcept, a game production company, in which top anime and game creators will produce a unique animation and game, developed in parallel worlds, based on our own interpretation of two common factors: “original image of main characters” and “story concept: Treasure Hunting.”
Two separate projects are running on Kickstarter until the 3rd August, 11:00 a.m. PDT)
1. New Art Images
2. Voice actor of BECK: Yūki Kaji
Yuji Kaji has been decided for voice actor of the protagonist Beck. Kaji participated in BERSERK Golden Arc III Advent produced by STUDIO4℃ as Judeau, and is now playing an important role in Attack on Titan as Eren Yeager. He is the voice actor who is attracting the most attention in the anime industry in Japan!
