The second official promotional video has released for the upcoming Death Parade anime, a continuation of the 2013 Anime Mirai short Death Billiards. This new video introduces the setting of the anime and gives a glimpse of the type of life threatening games that would have to be played. It also briefly introduces the new characters that will make their debut in the upcoming anime. The staff of Death Billiards will return to produce the series, including director, scriptwriter and creator Yuzuru Tachikawa (Arata-naru Sekai, Chi’s Sweet Home: Atarashii Ouchi Assistant Director) and animation studio Madhouse (Death Note, No Game No Life). Death Parade will star Tomoaki Maeno (Naotsugu from Log Horizon) as Decim and Asami Seto (Chihaya Ayase in Chihayafuru) as Onna.
The Death Parade anime will be airing from January 9 next year at 25:58 (effectively January 10, 1:58am) on NTV, followed by San TV and AT-X 1 in the following week, throughout the Winter 2014/2015 anime season.
