Japanese Radio Stations Produce Kurage no Sōdan Anime

posted on by Lynzee Loveridge

The social media app Mysta is adding a new section on Friday dedicated to producing original anime series. The Mysta presents Koe-chan!-VOICE CHAMPION GRANDPRIX- content. The app already promotes musical talent via a competition similar to American Idol meets Facebook.

The section's first original anime is Kurage no Sōdan as a collaboration with the Enoshima Aquarium in Fujisawa, Kanagawa; a breeding and research facility for jellyfish.

The anime is also working with idol and voice actress Yū Serizawa and musician Iori Noguchi. Staff are expecting to launch the anime on the app at the end of January 2019.

The anime is labeled a "spin-off" of Enoshimanz, a separate short anime that ran on Production I.G's Anime Beans app last year. That anime centers on three jellyfish named Mizukurage (moon jellyfish), Akakurage (northern sea nettle), and Pacific sea nettle. All three are frequent visitors of the Enoshima Aquarium to the point of having annual passes.
