Kondo Kenichi’s horror manga Dark Gathering is getting an anime adaptation by studio OLM. As part of the announcement, a teaser trailer and visual have been released. Hiroshi Ikehata is directing the anime, which is set to premiere in 2023.
The manga has been serialized by Shueisha’s Jump SQ manga magazine since March 2019. It follows the story of college freshman Keitaro Gentoga who seemingly attracts ghosts despite hating them. After receiving a spirit-related injury two years ago, he became a shut-in. He slowly returns to normal life thanks to his childhood friend Eiko Houzuki and takes a job as a part-time tutor for Eiko’s cousin Yayoi Houzuki. And just like Keitaro, Yayoi also has spiritual affinity, and yearns to continue to encounter spirits. Keitaro and Yayoi decide to look for spirits at haunted spots.
