We haven’t heard much about the anime adaptation of the visual novel Island since just before its release as a game back in April 2016. There still isn’t much in the way of details but publisher Frontwing revealed during their Anime Expo panel this weekend that the anime will be arriving in 2018 and that it will be supported by the game being pushed back with its English localization until the same time to try and really strike between the two mediums with fans.
No staffing or cast have been revealed for this yet.
Plot Concept: Urashima, an island far from the mainland. The people who live there lead carefree lives. But five years ago, the island’s three great families suffered a series of misfortunes, and succumbed to suspicion. The people of the island cut off all contact with the mainland, and began a slow decline. The key to saving the island lies in three girls who belong to the three families. But they are bound by old traditions, and are conflicted. On that island, a lone man washes ashore. The man claims to be from the future, and he begins a solitary struggle to change the island’s fate.
