After originally bringing out a TV special last fall, the Persona 5 the Animation series is set for an April 7th, 2018 debut and Crunchyroll has now confirmed their streaming for it. They’re looking at an April 7th debut themselves with the time to be set for when this two-cour run will get underway. Availability for the show is decent as it’ll be open to viewers in North America, Central America, South America, Australia, New Zealand, UK, and Ireland.
Masashi Ishihama will be directing it based on the series composition by Shinichi Inotsume. Tomomi Ishikawa is handling the character designs and A-1 Pictures is producing the animation.
The Japanese cast includes Rina Satou as Makoto Niijima, Aoi Yuuki as Futaba Sakura, Haruka Tomatsu as Haru Okumura, Mamoru Miyano as Ryuji Sakamoto, Nana Mizuki as Anne Tamamaki, Ikue Otani s Morgana, and Tomokazu Sugita as Yusuki Kitagawa.
Property Concept: The story takes place in Tokyo, the city where people’s desires intertwine. As disturbing incidents keep occurring in town, a rumor goes around that a group of people called the “Phantom Thieves of Hearts” has been reforming corrupt adults.
