Honey's Anime attended AnimeJapan 2017 held in Tokyo (March 26th) as press, and this is one of short reports of stages we covered.
Fantasy never goes out of style and the sequel of Rage of Bahamut: Genesis (Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis) is here to prove that. Its special stage at AnimeJapan 2017 introduced the voice actors of the main cast: Masakazu Morita (Azazel), Sumire Morohoshi (Nina), Yuichiro Umehara (Charioce XVII), Go Inoue (Kaisar) and Hiroyuki Yoshino (Favaro).
Together with the audience, the seiyuus got a chance to reminisce as they watched a PV featuring the main events of the Rage of Bahamut: Genesis. The sequel - Virgin Soul - is set ten years after these events and continues the story of the main characters.
While Genesis is filled with action and strongly driven by its storyline, its sequel promises to be more sensitive, focusing on dramatic elements as well as the emotions of the characters. The latest PV as well as the first couple minutes of Virgin Soul were revealed and while it might feature more drama, we can assure you that you can also expect epic battles between mankind and godly powers.
The animation was stunning and the passion of the director who specifically traveled to Italy to draw inspiration from local buildings was noticeable.
Rage of Bahamut: Virgin Soul promises battles, amazing scenery, drama and a captivating storyline, so check it out once it starts airing in April 2017 on Amazon. Two thumbs up from us!
