Anime COPPELION is adapted from ongoing manga by Tomonori Inoue and is set in a post apocalyptic Tokyo that was devastated by a nuclear power plant meltdown 20 years earlier. The Self-Defense Force has received a possible distress signal from Tokyo and sends in 3 girls, impervious to radiation, members of the special Coppelion unit to investigate.
Anime COPPELION is produced by GoHands and stars Haruka Tomatsu, Kana Hanazawa, and Satomi Akesaka voicing the lead characters. The anime was originally announced back in 2010 but delayed due to the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and real-world meltdown at Fukushima nuclear power plant. The current anime adaption is promoted as a reboot of the original manga (ed. perhaps revised due to sensitivity of the real-ongoing issues at Fukushima).
Anime COPPELION is scheduled to air in Japan beginning October 4th 2013 on digital TV BS11. Outside of Japan it will be available on Animax Asia, Madman Ent. (Australia), Viz Media and Hulu (USA).
angela’s new single “ANGEL / Tokumade” comes on one CD-only edition. Jacket covers and possible bonuses still to be announced.
