Ayana Yukihira is a second-year in high school, and after her parents’ divorce, she’s looking for a new start in an apartment of her own. But when she receives the keys, she finds another girl already there—fresh out of the bath! Due to an administrative error, the apartment was also rented out to Yuu Fukami, one of Ayana’s classmates at her new school. But instead of forcing Ayana to find another place to live, Yuu invites Ayana to share the lease as a roommate. As it turns out, the girls also share a mutual attraction that grows with every touch, every passing day…until they’re virtually drowning in it.
As expected, the Yen Press Industry Panel also gave manga fans much to look forward to with nine announcements (Sharkmaid of the Shore; The Deskmate Cat and the Love Novice; The Villainesses Are Unwavering; Disenchantment Camera; Don’t Talk to Me; Mane Mane Nichi Nichi: Baseball Manager Everyday; #ImLookingForZombies: The Complete Omnibus; My First Love with You Again; and Champignon Witch) that included some of the most highly requested romance series from the most dedicated of fans.

At San Diego Comic-Con, Bandai Namco Filmworks Inc. unveiled the RG Project, a next-generation Gundam initiative that expands the franchise into a new universe across anime, video game, and various other media built around a new world envisioned by acclaimed science-fiction filmmaker Kenji Kamiyama, with worldbuilding developed together with Toh EnJoe. Anchoring the initiative is the upcoming anime Mobile Suit Gundam RG XARX-ZERO, directed by Kamiyama and animated by SOLA ANIMATION, launching in 2027.
The RG Project is a bold new vision for Gundam: A multi-media universe crafted by Kamiyama, in which entries share a narrative spanning generations within one continuous world. The initiative brings together the anime Mobile Suit Gundam RG XARX-ZERO and the upcoming, high-mobility action game, GUNDAM ROGUE ORBIT, each depicting the shared universe from a different perspective.
Mobile Suit Gundam RG XARX-ZERO opens this new saga, set roughly 100 years before the events of GUNDAM ROGUE ORBIT, telling the beginning of the story and how this world came to be. GUNDAM ROGUE ORBIT, picks up generations later in a future shaped by accumulated events depicted in the anime. The anime and game come together for an experience that invites Gundam fans to immerse themselves into this new world and make new choices of their own.
Stay tuned for the RG Project as it challenges the Gundam franchise with a bold new vision for the future.

The three revelations delivered by the Autonomous Interstellar Object from another galaxy ushered in an age of unprecedented prosperity, allowing humanity to expand across the entire solar system.
Gravity Control. FTL Communication. Cognitive Materialization. Yet less than ten years after its discovery, the Object that had delivered these three revelations suddenly ran rampant, spawning an aggressive, self-proliferating ecosystem.
Humanity came to see this unknown ecosystem as the Apocalypse.
For three months, humanity fought the Apocalypse to a standstill in orbit above Earth. Forced to abandon the planet, humanity marked that year as A.A. 1—the first year After Apocalypse.
By A.A. 45, children born on the Moon and in space colonies have never known life without the Apocalypse.
And on the lunar surface, a boy named Ray Azumi awakens—
Protagonist: Ray Azumi
A war orphan who lost his parents in an Apocalypse attack, he serves as the designated pilot of Gundam ZERO. He is voiced by Takeo Otsuka.
World Enders
(W) James Patrick (A) Nicola Izzo
The end of the world isn’t coming. It’s already here. Eight apocalypses have ravaged Earth, and humanity has limped through each one…barely. Now, the monsters of Apoc 8 are closing in, and the only ones left to finish the job are a ragtag crew known as the World Enders: Bethany, Pullman, Toth, and the unhinged S.A.M.—mercenaries who kill for hire in a world already on life support. Their newest mission: trigger a doomsday bomb and finish the job once and for all. But as monsters close in and hope refuses to die, this crew of killers must decide if ending the world is mercy… or madness.
The highly anticipated sequel to the hit fantasy novel and comic SOLO LEVELING!
THE HEIR AWAKENS In a world of gates, monsters, and hunters galore, Sooho Sung is…
well, he’s just an ordinary college student.
Sure, his parents went missing right before the gates started appearing three years ago and he occasionally had a weird dream where he could beat up monsters and level up like in a video game, but other than that?
There’s absolutely nothing special about him.
So when a sudden monster outbreak occurs on his campus, he must fight against every instinct screaming at him to run away as he takes a page out of his police detective dad’s book and rushes to save his classmate.
The chances of making it out alive are looking bleak, until–PING!
[Congratulations on becoming a Player.

In addition to the release of the ultra-teaser visual and promotional video, the main animation staff and voices of the main character, Soara, and Kirik have also been announced. A special project to commemorate the TV anime adaptation has been revealed too!
Soara (VA: Ikumi Hasegawa)
A girl raised with the sole purpose of fighting monsters, with high combat ability and a deep understanding of monsters.
Having a serious personality, she sometimes finds it hard to keep up with Kirik and his team’s antics.
Voice of Soara; Ikumi Hasegawa’s comment
I’m the voice of Soara, Ikumi Hasegawa.
The first time I read the manga, I was encaptivated by the heartwarming story and intricately drawn world. While watching Kirik and his team build houses, I felt as though I was a child reading a picture book, filled with excitement. I’m extremely happy to be able to live in this world as Soara. It is a privilege to play this role, and I place great importance on portraying the emotional shifts my character goes through as she spends time with Kirik and the others. Please look forward to it!
Kirik (VA: Ayumu Murase)
A dwarf boy who claims to be an “architect of the monster world”.
A highly skilled craftsman with remarkable ability in architecture.
Though he is a big brother figure, his scaredy-cat side sometimes slips out. He travels across the monster world building houses for homeless monsters.
Voice of Kirik; Ayumu Murase’s comment
I’m honored to play the voice of Kirik.
When I read the manga, I was blown away by not just the originality of the content, but also by Yamaji-sensei’s breathtaking art style, the uniqueness of all the monsters, and most of all – Kirik’s way of life and charisma!
Each episode’s recording session features a unique lineup of guests, where we have fun while pouring our hearts into our characters. Whether you have or haven’t read the manga, I hope that you’ll look forward to the anime’s airing!
