The series will be animated by SILVER LINK, the studio most recently known for its work on series like Jahy-sama, Our Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World, and My Next Life as a Villainess. SILVER LINK isn’t necessarily known for adapting sci-fi anime, unlike other studios such as Sunrise or Satelight who thrive off of it.
The studio does have a few sci-fi series such as Chaos Child, Brave Witches, and Battle Girl High School. But Deep Insanity: The Lost Child looks to be their first full-fledged sci-fi series that dives into a completely different world.
The series will be SILVER LINK’s second original sci-fi series with Brave Witches being the first.
A couple of staff members definitely stand out among the Deep Insanity: The Lost Child staff. One is director Shin Oonuma, who also worked as the director for Our Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World. Another is Fumiyuki Go, who will be the sound director for the series. Go is most noticeably for his sound directing for series such as Deca-Dence and Rising of the Shield Hero. He will also be the sound director for a couple of other Fall 2021 anime such as World’s End Harem and Takt Op. Destiny.
The main character of the series, Shigure, will be voiced by none other than Hiro Shimono, who has voiced numerous big-time roles including Kurapika from Hunter x Hunter and Shino from Sword Art Online: Alicization. The amazing cast of the upcoming sci-fi original anime continues.
Ami Koshimizu, the voice of Ryuko from the hit series Kill La Kill, will voice the character of Vera. Kousuke Toriumi, who has an extensive line of work, most noticeably as Tanya from Saga of Tanya the Evil and Kiba from Naruto, will voice the character of Leslie.
