A lot of mobile game announcements are coming from Sega Networks’ Fan Kanshasai Festival today, and one of them is that Chain Chronicles, after already getting an 8-episode OVA in 2014, will also be getting its own TV anime series called “Chain Chronicles: Hekuseitasu no Hikari”, which can be translated as “Chain Chronicles: Light of Haecceitas”. The “Haecceitas” part is actually Latin, and refers to the “essence” of a person, or what makes that person an individual.
The trailer actually looks quite impressive, not only showing high-quality animation but also CG that doesn’t look out of place (too often the use of CG in anime can produce some very awkward results). But unfortunately whoever encoded the video didn’t do a particularly good job. There are a ton of interlacing artifacts remaining, which completely ruins the image quality of an otherwise great looking trailer.
Nonetheless, it’s still worth watching! You can find the video at the bottom of this post, and the official website for the anime here. The name is scheduled to be released in 2016 in Japan.
