Zenshu is getting an English dub on the same day from the studio behind Jujutsu Kaisen

One of the Japanese powers Anime He has a new original show coming out, and Crunchyroll An English dub was announced on the same day.

Zinshu It is the latest offering from MAPPA. Even if the average anime fan doesn’t know MAPPA by name, they probably know the studio’s work, especially in the shounen field.

Zinshu Premiere January 5, 2025, On TV Tokyo and Crunchyroll.

Isekai anime has been very popular, it seems. An Isekai is a story in which the main character finds herself in a new world. How a character arrives in the new world is part of the charm of the genre. It can be physical, such as the protagonist suddenly moving (Re: zero). It can be a mental construct (Sword art online). Or a spiritual journey after death (Eminence in the shadows).

Zinshu It joins the popular subgenre but adds its own defining touch.

After graduating from high school, Natsuko Hirose began her career as an animator. Her talent blossoms quickly, and she makes her directorial debut in no time. Her first anime was a huge hit, sparking a social phenomenon and earning her fame as an up-and-coming genius director. Her next project is set to be a romantic comedy revolving around first love! However, having never been in love, Natsuko struggles to understand the concept of first love, and as a result, is unable to create a storyboard, causing the film’s production to be halted. One day, she fainted while working on her storyboard and woke up in the world of her favorite childhood anime film, “A Tale of Perishing.”

An anime that revolves around an anime artist who gets transferred into anime is the kind of silliness that makes Isekai a fan-favorite character. The premise alone had me excited to watch the show.
