'Arknights: Reimei Zensou' TV Anime Announces Cast, Staff Members

The Arknights 2nd Anniversary Livestream event revealed the first key visual (pictured above), cast, and staff for the television anime adaptation—Arknights: Reimei Zensou (Arknights Animation: Prelude to Dawn)—on Sunday.

Yuuki Watanabe (Plastic Memories animation director, Kiznaiver ending director) is helming the anime. Masataka Nishikawa who worked with Watanabe on Kiznaiver, Little Witch Academia, and SSSS.Gridman, is serving as the assistant director. Both Watanabe and Nishikawa also worked on Arknights promotional videos and the Holy Knight Light short net anime.

Hypergryph, the developers behind the Arknights smartphone game, announced last October that the anime's first season is being produced by Yostar Pictures.

The event also revealed that Takashi Matsuyama (Tennis no Ouji-sama, Peace Maker Kurogane) will be voicing the character Ace in the anime.
