ABEMA will start streaming ‘After the Rain’ and ‘Eden of the East,’ anime series from Fuji TV’s late-night block, Noitamina. An all-episode marathon is scheduled to open the streaming.
First, ‘After the Rain’ will kick off the streaming on November 7. This work is based on Mayuzuki Jun’s manga serialized in ‘Big Comic Spirits’ and other magazines, and the TV anime series was broadcast from January to March 2018.
The story delicately depicts the romance between a high school girl, who was once the ace of the track and field club but had quit running due to an injury, and a manager of a chain restaurant who has given up on his dream. A live-action adaptation was also produced.
Starting on November 14th in the following week, the TV anime ‘Eden of the East’ and its two-part theatrical adaptation, ‘Eden of the East Movie I: The King of Eden’ and ‘Eden of the East the Movie II: Paradise Lost’ will be available all at once. Viewers can enjoy the suspenseful action of a young man with amnesia and the “Cereson Game” to save Japan with 10 billion yen. The character design is by Umino Chica, known for “Hachimitsu to Clover” and “March Comes In like a Lion”.
Both titles will be available for a broadcast marathon on the first day of the streaming. The broadcast of ‘After the Rain’ will start on November 7 at 7:30 p.m., and the three “Eden of the East” series will be available on November 14 (Monday) at 6:00 p.m. on Anime LIVE 2 Channel. All episodes will be streamed free of charge for one week from the first day.
