Yesterday, the animation "Ghost of a New Lady", co-produced by Flip Animation and NetEase Games, produced by Japanese animation company ClockDance, and promoted and distributed by Japanese advertising agency ADK, was held in Shanghai. The press conference announced the production lineup, the launch of the PV and the completion progress.
In this regard, Ben Ben was nervous.
Guoman's attitude towards the word "classic" makes Ben really dare not compliment.
In recent years, several classic adaptations or classic remakes, except for a few good but not excellent works, the others are really...
Especially when putting the direction of classic production on young works...
However, after watching the production team of this work, Ben Ben was relieved!!!
Take a closer look, and Ben actually has expectations for it!
Let's talk about why Ben is worth looking forward to:
The adaptation of this anime goes like this:
"Qiannu Ghost" → Online game "Qiannu Ghost" → Manga "Qiannu Ghost" → Animation "Qiannu Ghost"
The manga was released last year, and the reputation of online games and comics is not bad. The recent hit "A Slight Smile is Very Enchanting" is based on the online game "Ghost of Qiannu" as the background.
That animation wouldn't be too bad.
Several large companies:
NetEase games needless to say, there is money and strength
Flip through the anime everyone can go to check, there is a conscience and strength of the animation company
Japanese ClockDance Company, a senior animation company, there are many excellent works
Japanese advertising giant Asahi ADK Group
Both Japanese companies work closely with Chinese companies.
Production Team:
Director: Mizuho Nishikubo (Sky Wars, Movie Girl, Giovanni Island, etc.)

The published anime PV and character draft are attractive
The biggest and biggest problem of domestic animation is in the storyline, but the following information was released at this conference:
This Sino-Japanese cooperation of the "Ghost of the New Lady" series of animations, adapted from the classic Liaozhai and the game of the same name, is completely new in terms of storyline and presentation. In addition to the bookish female ghost continuing the frontier, there is also a bitter love-hate relationship between the protagonists with very different personalities. The half-human and half-fox organist Leng Yuexin, the fast-hearted knifeman Yang Mengyan, the reunion is Providence? The intimate brothers Luo Haokong and Nie Qiuying have become rivals of their own masters, who can decide whose life and death?
Whether this is an exaggeration or not, we will not know until it is released.
"Ghost of a New Lady" will be produced in two seasons, each season with 13 episodes, each episode lasting about 30 minutes. After nearly two years of preparation, the first season of the anime has entered the middle of production and is expected to be broadcast simultaneously in China and Japan in April next year.
Anyway, I'm a little bit looking forward to it.
What about you?
