Imageworks Studio

Imageworks Studio is co-producing two anime: the second season of With Vengeance, Sincerely, Your Broken Saintess, premiering in October, and the short TV anime Haru to Gen, premiering next January on tvk.

Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated Sep 18

Imageworks Studio's current work is two co-productions, one a returning series and one a new short-format adaptation. The second season of the light anime With Vengeance, Sincerely, Your Broken Saintess premieres in October. Animation ID announced the season, with Saya Fukase directing at IMAGICA Infos and Imageworks Studio. Fukase replaces first-season director Chisaki. The returning cast includes Asami Seto, Soma Saito, and Momo Asakura. The source webtoon by SORAJIMA and Aminohada recently ended its main story and went on hiatus, which makes the anime the primary ongoing version of the property.

The other project is a short-format television anime of Yuka Oshima's Haru to Gen ~70-sai, Hajimete Kosodate~, set to premiere next January on tvk. Kodai Sato directs at IMAGICA Infos and Imageworks Studio with Studio Nanahoshi. The story follows Gen, a 70-year-old man estranged from his wife and daughter after a divorce, who takes in his three-year-old granddaughter Haru after his daughter's death. The adaptation puts Kadokawa's TATESC vertical-scrolling label into a short-form TV slot, a path that until now has mostly carried full-length series.

Both projects place Imageworks Studio alongside IMAGICA Infos, and the two series differ in format and platform. With Vengeance returns with a new director and the same cast. Haru to Gen is a short TV anime on tvk. Coverage of both centers on their production and release plans rather than on the studio itself.
