The previously announced Agents of the Four Seasons anime revealed a summer-themed visual and trailer on Monday. Animated by WIT Studio, the series adapts the light novel of the same name by Violet Evergarden author Kana Akatsuki. The release date and cast are yet to be announced.
The main staff composes of Ken Yamamoto (Uma Musume Pretty Derby: Beginning of a New Era) as director, Ayumu Hisao (I’m in Love with the Villainess) as the series composition writer, and Namiko Torii (The Grimm Variations) as character designer.
Suoh provides the illustrations for the Agents of the Four Seasons light novel, while Nappa Komatsuka illustrates the manga adaptation of the first part. Yen Press is publishing the novel and manga in English and they describe the former as:
Winter was once the only season in the world-but such an existence was too lonely to bear, and so it created Spring to love. Before long, the earth wished for more time to rest in the cycle, and Summer and Autumn were born. The ones who carry the cycle are called the Agents of the Four Seasons. Hinagiku, the Agent of Spring, disappeared from this land ten years ago, taking the season of spring with her. Now, after incredible hardship, she has returned to restore the cycle to its proper state-and, as in the myth passed down since the dawn of time, she sends her love to Winter.
