During its Geeked Week virtual event, Netflix has shared a trailer for My Daemon, the upcoming anime fantasy series from Igloo Studio and Hirotaka Adachi (aka Otsuichi).
The series follows Kento, a kind-hearted elementary schooler who sets off on a journey across post-apocalyptic Japan to try and save Anna, his tiny daemon friend that he raised from a red grain of sand, after people try to kill her. Watch the trailer below…
In the near future, a nuclear blast causes Earth to momentarily overlap with hell and pollute the air with sandstorms from hell. Kento, an elementary schooler who lives in downtown Tokyo, finds a red grain of sand in the forest and raises it as a “daemon,” which he names Anna. The two of them live happily together until people begin to hate and try to kill Anna. Kento wants to protect the daemon, but when his watchful mother has an unfortunate accident, Kento and Anna set out on an adventure to save her.
My Daemon arrives on Netflix on November 23rd.
