At the closing ceremony of the Anime Expo (July 4 to July 7, 2019) in Los Angeles, the latest PV animation of the game was announced, which is also the first time in the world that the animation content of this game has been released.

Gibiate PROJECT is a project established in October 2018 by well-known creators who are active in the cultural fields such as anime and games in Japan, aiming to convey the essence of Japanese culture to the outside world. The animated version of "GIBIATE" released this time is a monster setting by the world-renowned game artist Kitaka Amano as a character character (original case), and the manga artist Naoki Serizawa, who simultaneously released the manga version of "Resident Evil" in 12 countries around the world, and has a highly rated music score worldwide, and the music creators of "Isu" and "Resa Strike" served as the soundtrack of the anime.

For the first time, "legendary-level" creators who are active in their respective fields have come together to create a joint creation. The all-star lineup that meets the positioning of all-star works and the global release of this project have attracted attention and expectations from all sides.

■ Can Amano's new anime, which has been absent for 10 years, surpass Vampire Hunter D(※)!?

Amano's participation as a character in the anime goes back to 2009's "The Forest Emperor - Courage for the Future" (Production: Tezuka Production, Fuji TV). The animation production lineup is not yet public, but the production staff are all "legendary" celebrities (information will be disclosed at any time in the future). Representing Japan's top creators and producers, this game can be described as an "all-star work".

In 2016, Amano Kitaka attended the opening and closing ceremonies of the Anime Expo as a guest, and this time appeared on the scene of the anime PV release through the image after three years. Amano's popularity in Europe and the United States is very high, and this announcement also pleased the relevant people involved in the Anime Expo.

■Outline of the work

The stage is Japan in 2030. A virus is spreading all over the world.

People infected with the virus will turn into monsters, and they will change depending on age, gender, and race. This virus is varied, hence the name "Monster Man (as varied as Monster Man)".

A group of samurai and ninjas appeared in such a barren Japan.

The two men, who had traveled from the early Edo period, worked together with the doctor who studied and treated monster men.

The large number of monster people who are constantly attacking, the unreasonable people who attack the Rangers in search of food, and the dangerous life begins...
