The TV anime adaptation of Onigunsou’s Malevolent Spirits: Mononogatari supernatural-action manga unveiled a teaser visual, promotional video, main cast, and staff. The release date is yet to be confirmed.
The series centers on Hyouma Kunato, a clan member who holds tsukumogami which robbed him of something important. Afraid that Hyouma’s brash anger in dealing with these spirits will lead to supernatural catastrophes, Hyouma’s grandfather sends him to live in Kyoto with Botan Nagatsuki, an unusual young woman who actually lives with tsukumogami-like family!
Takeo Ōtsuka takes the role of the protagonist, Hyouma, and Yūki Takada plays the mysterious young woman, Botan. Ryuichi Kimura is directing the series at BN Pictures, while Keiichirō Ōchi is penning the scripts. John Kanda and XELIK are in charge of the music.
