We learned over the weekend that a feature film is in the works for the Servamp manga property from Tanaka Strike and now some new details have surfaced for it. The film will be known as Servamp: Alice in the Garden with it planned for a spring 2018 premiere, which you can get a taste of through the first teaser released below. The main cast and staff are returning for the project though Ayumu Hisao is on board to write the screenplay for this.
We also have the first key visual you can see to the right.
The staff for the TV series had Ittou Kou serving as the chief director while Hideaki Nakano served as the director. The series composition was done by Kenji Konuta while Junko Yamanaka worked on the character designs. The series was animated at Brains Base.
The English language dub was directed by Sonny Strait and the cast includes Clifford Chapin as Mahiru, Chuck Huber as Kuro, Mike McFarland as Belkia, Alejandro Saab as Koyuki, Stephen Sanders as Ryusei, and Brian Olvera as Sakuya.
The Japanese cast includes Takuma Terashima as Mahiru Shirota, Yuuki Kaji as Kuro, Hiro Shimono as Misono Arisuin, Tatsuhisa Suzuki as Tsubaki, Kazuma Horie as Snow Lily, Ryohei Kimura as Lawless, Nobunaga Shimazaki as Todoroki, Yuuki Ono as Tetsu, Ayumu Murase as Hugh the Dark Algernon, Yoshitsugu Matsuoka as Belkia, Kenjiro Tsuda as JeJe, Tetsuya Kakihara as Mikuni Alicein and Yuuto Suzuki as Sakuya Watanuki. This basically brings the cast from the drama CDs into the anime adaptation for the primary characters.
OLDCODEX performed the opening theme song Deal with while Takuma Terashima is performing the ending theme song sunlight avenue.
The work from Strike Tanaka began back in the summer of 2011 and has ten volumes to its name with Seven Seas Entertainment releasing them in North America.
Property Concept: The story revolves around a 16-year-old boy (15 at the beginning of the story) named Mahiru Shirota who likes simple things and dislikes difficult things. One day, he picks up a stray black cat he finds in the middle of the road and gives it the name Kuro (which literally translates into “black”). From this moment on, a contract between the servamp Sleepy Ash and Mahiru is formed, and Mahiru is pulled into the Servamp war between the seven deadly Servamps and their eighth sibling Tsubaki.
