Crunchyroll reports on an anime adaptation of shockingly unique apocalyptic manga.
Just now, Crunchyroll revealed they had the rights to the Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction film adaptation of Inio Asano's work. March 22 saw the release of the first movie in Japan on amazing reviews; the second movie is sure to have just as great or better praise.
Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction is particularly unusual for Crunchyroll obtaining since they won't be distributing it as films like in Japan. After the second movie opens in Japan, Crunchyroll will premiere Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction as an 18-episode anime beginning Thursday, May 23 at 8:00 PM PT. Crunchyroll has already broken an anime film up into individual episodes, therefore ultimately, the fact that there is such a short wait for the series to arrive to the West is quite fantastic, on its own.
The Story of Dead Dead Demon's Denedede Destruction Clarified
Three years after a UFO surfaced in the heavens above Japan, Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction takes place. Although the aliens have done nothing, the JSDF and other militaries around the globe still want to wipe them; people all around are either seeking to profit from the turmoil or oppose the whole circumstances. Though they do occasionally end up impacted by the aliens, for better or ill, Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction's narrative largely centers on the daily lives of Kadode, Ouran, and their pals, therefore transcending the tension surrounding the aliens.
Dead Dead Demon showcases Inio Asano's well-known dark and strange narrative, most famously from Goodnight Punpun (an amazing manga most certainly never seen in an anime). Based on the trailers, the animation will vividly bring all of Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction's strange images and storyline about humanity and a person's psychology to life, much as with Asano's past works. Your Name director Makoto Shinkai gave the first movie great compliments, which is encouraging about how interesting it will be.
Why Is Dead Dead Demon's Dentedede Destruction Not Airing As Movies?
Great as it is that Crunchyroll will be streaming Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction, one wonders why it isn't being released as movies like in Japan. Inio Asano is still a relatively niche author outside of Japan, hence if Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction come to theaters in the West, it most likely wouldn't have been that popular. Crunchyroll releasing Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction as a weekly anime is thus most likely to release it without losing too much money since only streaming it would surely be more economical than running it in theaters.
Having said that, the new structure could help the movies. Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction published as a weekly anime ensures it will be in discourse for a far longer period, hence helping it to sustain its popularity throughout the year, even if if the films were merely released as flicks their popularity would die down pretty soon. The best way they could manage it is by crunchyroll releasing Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction as an anime instead of the film duology; it's guaranteed to become among the best anime of the year.
Original Crunchyroll with a Twist
Crunchyroll has become well-known lately for producing and distributing original anime with a range of tones, genres, and themes. Clearly, the business entered the realm of anime with the publication of well-known projects like Tower of God and The God of High School. These shows have helped the company's name grow and given it some visibility, which has led to even more anime productions and materials produced in the years following.
Crunchyroll has confirmed its position in the realm of anime with the latest revelation. The company has obviously had success adding fresh material, developing its own unique content, and distributing materials in several ways. The company is obviously dedicated to its expansion and success in the realm of anime, which will keep developing with the publication of Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction and other shows under production.
