While we previously revealing the staff and the first promo and yesterday got the cast list for the series, we now have a pair of key visuals for Trinity Seven: The Seven Magicians. The manga for this property started in 2010 and has seven volumes to its name as created by Akinari Nao and Kenji Saitou. The anime adaptation is slated for an October 2014 debut. The series is set to be directed by Hiroshi Nishikiori based on the series composition by Hiroyuki Yoshino while Shinpei Tomooka will be doing double duty as the character designer and director of photography. The series is being animated at Seven Arcs Pictures.
The series stars Yumi Hara as Lilith Asami, Yoshitsugu Matsuoka as Arata Kasuga, Aya Uchida as Arin Kannazuki, Ayane Sakura as Revi Kazama, Yōko Hikasa as Mira Yamana,
Ryoka Yuzuki as Akio Fudo, Rie Murakawa as Yui Kurata and Nao Tōyama as Liselotte Sherlock.
Plot concept: Everyday is a normal day in the small town where Kasuga Arata lives. However, everything changed on the day of the Black Sun, and following it, a magician appears before him. The Black Sun caused the Breakdown Phenomenon which destroyed the town where he lives. Because of this, his normal life was artificially reconstructed by a Grimoire that his childhood friend had left. Just what is the purpose of the magician coming to the town? What will he do with the Grimoire’s keepsake?
Gosh. I love the character designs. I think I might tune it to watch it but not sure. I can’t really get a feel for the story’s premise.
