Square Enix has officially announced that the anime adaptation of trendy JRPG The World ends With You will premiere in April 2021. The anime series – a direct retelling of the 2007 video game – is a joint production of Domerica and Shin-Ei Animation.

Square has also released an exciting new trailer, spotlighting TWEWY’s cast of eclectic characters, along with the dimension-hopping action that will feature in this adaptation of the beloved Nintendo DS/Switch adventure. The video is set to the anime’s dynamic title track “Teenage City Riot,” as performed by Japanese artists ALI. Also released was a new promotional image, emblazoned with the edgy overseers known as “Reapers.”

It should be noted, however, that this trailer/date was not the prize at the end of the mysterious countdown clock over on the official Square Enix website, with fans eagerly anticipating its ultimate revelation.
