Check out the cool new anime teaser trailer for All You Need Is Kill.
The story is told from the first person point of view of the protagonist Keiji Kiriya. Keiji is a new recruit in the United Defense Force, fighting against the mysterious creatures called “Mimics” which have laid siege to Earth. Keiji is killed on his first sortie, but through some inexplicable phenomenon wakes up having returned to the day before the battle, only to find himself caught in a time loop as his death and resurrection repeats time and time again. Keiji’s skills as a soldier grows as he passes through the time loops trying to change his fate.
Based on the manga Hiroshi Sakurazaka, already adapted into the Tom Cruise movie Edge of Tomorrow, this new film adaptation is produced by STUDIO4℃, a cool Japanese animation company known for interesting and challenging works like Tekkonkinkreet, which is one of my favorite Taiyo Matsumoto manga adaptations.
This wasn’t even a tiny blip on my radar, but now I’m really looking forward to it! What do you think?
