Spriggan anime got a teaser visual which got posted on the official Twitter account for the series on May 7, 2021. David Production (Jojo’s Bizzare Adventure, Fire Force) is animating the series, that is coming to Netflix later this year.
Netflix Japan released the PV for the anime series in October last year:
Spriggan anime is based on Hiroshi Takashige’s manga with the same name. The manga started publishing in 1989 and received an animated movie adaptation by Studio 4°C in 1998. However, keep in mind that the North American release of the manga uses the name Striker.
Netflix website describes the series’ plot as An ancient alien civilization’s relics on Earth hold dangerous powers. The ARCAM corporation’s Spriggan agents must keep them out of the wrong hands.
Staff listing for the Spriggan anime is also available and includes Hiroshi Kobayashi as a director, Hiroshi Seko as a screenplay writer/series composition, with Shuuei Handa as character designer and chief animation director. In addition, Chiaki Kobayashi is voicing the main character, whose name is Yu Ominae.
