A few hours after yesterday’s news post about Under the Dog’s Kickstarter was published, its $580,000 goal was reached. At the time of writing this news post, $683,025 has been pledged by 10,070 backers with 44 hours to go.

 


Synopsis

<em>Under the Dog takes place in 2025 in Neo Tokyo, five years after a devastating terrorist attack at the Tokyo Olympics. In the wake of the tragedy, the U.N. formed a covert ops unit dedicating to seeking out, then eliminating those responsible for the attack. Anthea Kallenberg, a girl of Swedish descent is a member of this elite group who has honed her combat abilities and has become a deadly assassin, but must come to terms as to who she really is.</em>

Under the Dog is a sci-fi thriller that echoes cyber punk anime of the 90s. Creative Intelligence Arts now have the funds to create a 24 minute episode (the first in a planned trilogy) and release the anime complete with English subtitles as well&nbsp; as the original soundtrack, behind-the scenes-diaries and interviews. If backers pledged $20 or more then they will have digital access to this and any future Under the Dog episodes.

According to Anime News Network, the creators are &ldquo;in talks with Netflix and Crunchyroll to distribute the finished work.&rdquo;
