Odex announced on Tuesday that its Philippine screening of Gekijōban Servamp: Alice in the Garden, the anime film based on Strike Tanaka's Servamp manga, is slated to open on July 14.
The film opened in Japan on April 7.
The film's story deals with Misono Alicein's past. The main cast from the television anime reprised their roles. Hideaki Nakano returned to direct the film at Platinum Vision, and Junko Yamanaka again designed the characters. Ayumu Hisao (Yowamushi Pedal: Spare Bike, Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?) replaced Kenji Konuta to write the script. OLDCODEX returned to perform the film's theme song "One Side." OLDCODEX previously performed the television anime's opening theme song.
Tanaka launched the series in Monthly Comic Gene in 2011, and Kadokawa published the manga's 12th volume on March 27. Monthly Comic Gene is listing that the manga has 1.5 million copies in print. The manga inspired a television anime in July 2016. Animax Asia aired the anime in June last year.
