Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout anime is based on the role-playing game of the same title developed by Gust and published by Koei Tecmo. It was initially released in Japan for PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Microsoft Windows platforms in September 2019. The game was released worldwide in November of the same year. Steam describes the story:
The concept of this title, the latest in the series to depict a new “Atelier” world, is “True-to-life youths that develop together, even if just a little bit”.
It is the story of a girl and her friends who are about to become adults, discovering what is most important to them.
To depict the story of the main characters discovering things they’ve never seen before, we’ve created fields with natural shadows that allow you to feel the breath of the world. Graphics have been further enhanced, allowing for a world of daily-life and adventure to be depicted in a new way.
