Nagi no Asukara: A Lull in the Sea
Long ago humanity lived in the sea, but some humans longed for the land and cast aside the raiments given to them by the sea god that allowed them to live in the ocean. One civilization was now two with very different ways of thinking and over time they forgot they were once one people. When their high school closes down, four ocean dwellers, Hikari Sakishima, Manaka Mukaido, Chisaki Hiradaira and Kaname Isaki are forced to live on the surface. But after they befriend land dweller Tsumugu Kihara their lives unfold in strange and beautiful ways.
Toshiya Shinohara (Black Butler, The Book of Bantorra) directed the 26 episode series off scripts supervised by Mari Okada (Black Butler, The Book of Bantorra, anohana, Hanasaku Iroha). Buriki (Haganai, Ground Control to Psychoelectric Girl) was in charge of the original character designs and Ray performed the opening theme song and Nagi Yanagi performed the ending theme. The series premiered in Japan on October 3 2013 and was streamed by Crunchyroll. NIS America licensed the series in December 2013 and has yet to announce a release date.
