Spirit Circle by Satoshi Mizukami is getting an anime adaptation this year, touted as Tatsuo Satou's (Martian Successor Nadesico, Moretsu Pirates) final work.

The somewhat unexpected announcement was made on November 5 with a trailer that showcases some of the voice cast. Kazuki Ura (Yoichi Isagi in Blue Lock) is playing Futa Okeya, Anna Nagase (Akane Osaki in Akane-banashi) is Kouko Ishigami, Eri Yukimura (Fuyuko Mayuzumi in The Idolmaster: Shiny Colors) is Run, and Yuichi Nakamura (Satoru Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen) is East.

Relatively new studios Eota and Nagomi are collaborating on the project with Twin Engine producing.

In a comment, the production partners explained that Satou was hard at work as director on the series composition until his untimely passing in April. Assistant director Kentaro Mizuno (Wistoria: Wand and Sword) then took over the reins on the project, bringing it to completion.
