Revealed back in summer 2017, the upcoming Konosuba film is set for an August 30th, 2019 debut and that has Kadokawa showing off a new trailer. It’s still a bit off to some in getting used to JC Staff handling the production instead of Studio Deen but the end results still look as fun as ever. The new trailer clocks in at 90-seconds and gives us a good taste of the theme song as well. The project has Machico on board once again for the theme song while the three lead actors are coming in for the end song with Ai Kayano, Rie Takahashi, and Sora Amamiya. This basically replicates how the TV properties have operated.
The TV series was animated at Studio DEEN with Takaomi Kansaki directing based on scripts by Makoto Uezeu and character designs by Kouichi Kikuta.
The cast includes Jun Fukushima as Kazuma Satou, Sora Amamiya as Aqua, Rie Takahashi as Megumin, Ai Kayano as Raratina Dustiness Ford, Sayuri Hara as Luna, Tetsu Inada as Ruffian, Ayaka Suwa as Chris, Takuya Eguchi as Kyouya Mitsurugi, Hiroki Yasumoto as Beldia Dullahan and Yui Horie as Wiz.
The original work comes from writer Akatsuki Natsume with illustrations by Mishima Kurone. The book began in the fall of 2013 and has thirteen volumes released so far. It also got the expected manga adaptation along the way with Masahito Watari illustrating that starting back in September 2014.

Plot concept: After a traffic accident, Kazuma Sato’s disappointingly brief life was supposed to be over, but he wakes up to see a beautiful girl before him. She claims to be a goddess, Aqua, and asks if he would like to go to another world and bring only one thing with him. Kazuma decides to bring the goddess herself, and they are transported to a fantasy world filled with adventure, ruled by a demon king. Now Kazuma only wants to live in peace, but Aqua wants to solve many of this world’s problems, and the demon king will only turn a blind eye for so long…
