Renta! announced Wednesday that Redoing My Youth In Another World -The God Of Death Is My Fanboy- is receiving an AniComi motion comic adaptation, airing January 2027 on Tokyo MX. Tomohito Takatsuka voices Makoto Fuwa and Ryuichi Kijima voices the God of Death Thanatos. Keita Ando directs at Do-Raku with Digital Shokunin. The production uses traditional motion comic methods plus generative AI in some shots, with manual touch-ups and rights permissions secured.
Makoto Fuwa is 26 and still haunted by his high school years. A mysterious free pass lets him redo them, except his classmates are now monsters, angels, and gods, and the God of Death keeps staring at the only human in school. Renta! developed AniComi as a format to add motion and sound to manga, and this production uses traditional methods while incorporating generative AI in some shots. The company said AI-generated assets received manual touch-ups, compositing and editing, and that rights permissions were obtained. The manga launched on Renta! in July 2024 as its first original vertical BL title, with four digital compiled volumes released.
