Another title joins the Animeism programming block for the Winter 2018 anime season.


Recently it had been announced that the upcoming anime adaptation of the Beatless novel will now be broadcasting on the Animeism programming block for MBS in Japan. This will mean that the title is going to launch exclusively to Amazon’s Prime Video service for digital streaming worldwide, joining Killing Bites as well as the NoitaminA title Koi wa Ameagari no You ni and the other new title Kokkoku: Moment by Moment. The series will begin broadcast on January 12th & 13th in Japan via the MBS, TBS & BS-TBS stations, which is during the Winter 2018 anime season.

Amazon made an exclusive deal with MBS to simulcast & stream titles from Animeism programming block exclusively through Prime’s video service (and under AnimeStrike for North America) a couple seasons ago. So far only a couple titles have appeared on the service under the banner like Altair: A Record of Battles, Rage of Bahamut: Virgin Soul and Yuki Yuna is a Hero: The Washio Sumi & Hero Chapter.

Beatless will be adapted by studio Diomedea (KanColle, Squid Girl) and helmed by director Seiji Mizushima (Concrete Revolutio, Fullmetal Alchemist). Both Tatsuya Takahashi (Eromanga Sensei, Rewrite) and Go Zappa (Blend-S, Koihime Musou) will be writing the script composition while Hiroko Yaguchi (Aikatsu!, Un-Go) will be designing the characters. Musicians GARNiDELiA and ClariS will provide the opening and ending theme songs. The anime is based on the light novel of the same name written by Satoshi Hase and artist redjuice (Guilty Crown, Project Itoh Movie Trilogy).

Cast members have yet to be announced at the time of this post. Tokyo Otaku Mode have translated the original novel.

It's funny how amazon is somehow managing to try so hard to compete with Netflix and yet at the same time do such a poor job of it. Everything amazon tries feels half hearted and pathetic.

I've used the service when I've had free prime trials and the selection is usually full of rubbish and the interface is clunky. I also hate prime because of how they make things exclusive to prime etc making non-prime users out to be 2nd class. Plus the delivery drivers are the most consistently miserable gits.
