Takopi’s Original Sin officially has an anime adaptation in production, and it revealed the first teaser visual and an announcement trailer. Additional details are set to be announced at Jump Festa 2025 on December 22. You watch the trailer for the new anime below.
The anime project and production are being handled by TBS Television, while details about the staff and cast were not revealed. The teaser visual features Takopi, Shizuka, and their pet Chappy sleeping peacefully together.
Taizan 5 wrote and illustrated the Takopi’s Original Sin (Takopi no Genzai) manga. It was published on Shueisha’s Shonen Jump+ platform from December 2021 to March 2022, getting a total of 2 compiled volumes. VIZ Media licensed the manga in English, describing the story:
Cute little alien Takopi lands on Earth. What is his mission? To be taken to our leader? No. To spread happiness throughout the universe!
The first person Takopi meets is depressed fourth grader Shizuka. (Or is it…?) Takopi is determined to do whatever it takes to make Shizuka smile again. But his misguided attempts to help her by using his advanced technology to turn back time only result in mayhem and death.
What is the truth Takopi can’t remember? And what must the pink alien octopus with a heart of gold sacrifice to truly help Shizuka and her friends…?
Edit (December 9): We apologize for the error regarding the format of the anime (which has not been specified) and have made the necessary corrections.
