Bones Confirms New Production

Anime studio Bones (Rahxephon, Wolf’s Rain) has confirmed plans to produce an original anime series titled “Towa no Kuon” despite the death of Umanosuke Iida last month due to lung cancer. Iida was originally scheduled to direct the series. Now Takeshi Mori (Gunsmith Cats, Vandread) will direct. Rahxephon creator Yutaka Izubuchi is credited as series concept designer with Rahxephon concept designer Shingo Takeba also contributing original designs. Wolf’s Rain character designer Toshihiro Kawamoto will provide chara design and serve as animation director.

The production credits on this are impressive. Let’s just cross our fingers and hope that no ill befalls Takeshi Mori. Umanosuke Iida took over directing Gundam MS 08 after original director Takeyuki Kanda died suddenly in 1996. Iida then died suddenly in 2010.
