After the official site went live last month and we got the details of the project that’s become Vitreous Flower Destroy[s] The World, Pony Canyon has now revealed a new thirty second spot for the film. The piece doesn’t offer too much new for people to really sink their teeth into, but it expands on the background and overall visual design for it in a really good way that will entice animation fans in general. The project is based on the D.Backup scenario that was put together by a group called Physics Unit as part of the first Anime Adaptation Prize contest back in 2013 that Pony Canyon ran. It’s now going into a bigger direction here with this adaptation that looks to have a pretty solid production team behind it.
The film is set to be directed by Masashi Ishihama, who worked recently on the anime adaptation of From the New World, working off of the screenplay by Fumihiko Shimo, whose works are well ranged from Air and Clannad to Golden Time and Amagi Brilliant Park. It’ll be animated at A-1 Pictures with Kantoku handling the character designs.
Plot concept: ‘Software’ characters fight bugs that have spread inside the box of knowledge.
