The TV anime adaptation of ippatu's manga Tora Tsugumi -TSUGUMI PROJECT- announced its first cast on October 19. Masaaki Mizunaka plays Leone, a former soldier and death-row prisoner; Misaki Watada plays Tsugumi, a bizarre creature with a lovely appearance and abnormal strength; Haruki Ishiya plays Dudu, a former underground fighting champion who travels with Leone. The announcement came with the first voice comic video, which shows Leone and Dudu meeting aboard a plane bound for the ruined "old Japan," a land of high radiation where monstrous creatures roam and no people live. More voice comic videos are planned. The original manga ran in Kodansha's Young Magazine, and the Japanese collected edition is complete at seven volumes; the French edition is published by Ki-oon, where the series was a hit before Japan. A giveaway on X offers a signed acrylic panel featuring all three voice actors. The anime adaptation was announced in July.
