The streaming service Prime Video announced today that the license on the anime series »City the animation« was secured. We summarize.
Start in July 2025
“City the animation” is expected to start on July 7, 2025 on Japanese television and run worldwide in the original sound with subtitles at Prime Video in the Simulcast. It is still unclear whether a German language version is also offered.
The Studio Kyoto Animation is responsible for the production of the Slice-of-Life comedy anime, in which Taichi Ishidate (“Violet Evergarden”) takes over the position of the director and Tamami Tokuyama creates the character design.
The opening song “Hello” comes from the Japanese musician Riho Furui, while the ending song “Lucky” by Tomoo (ending song by “Blue Box”) is contributed.
The original manga series entitled “City” by Keiichi Arawi appeared between September 2016 and February 2021 in “Morning” magazine. The Japanese publisher Kodansha brought the work in 13 volumes.

Action:
A central student strikes with unpaid rent, an annoying landlord and a best friend who no longer lends her money. There is only one thing between absurd ideas such as bullying or theft: work.
But that means less time for chaotic adventures in a city full of weird characters.
