Takopi's Original Sin gets a theatrical cut in Japan on November 27

The six-episode anime is being re-edited for cinemas with new scenes, opening in Japan on November 27.

Takopi’s Original Sin is heading to Japanese cinemas on November 27. The film is a compilation: all six episodes of the anime, re-edited specifically for theaters, plus new scenes.

About the series

The anime adapts Taizan 5’s short manga, which ran on Shueisha’s Shonen Jump+ and was collected in two volumes. VIZ Media publishes it in English. Despite the cute alien on the cover, it’s a heavy story.

The film keeps the series’ team: animation by ENISHIYA, with Shinya Iino directing and handling series composition, and Keita Nagahara on character designs.

Will it come to other countries?

No international release for the film has been announced yet. If you haven’t seen the series, the TV version is the place to start.
