if you’re eager to watch the upcoming anime series dedicated to Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout, today Aniplex revealed a new trailer.
The trailer reveals more familiar characters since the original teaser only showcased Ryza herself on top of Lent and Tao. This time around we get to see Ryza’s mentors Empel Vollmer and Lila Decyrus, on top of the fourth member of the gang, Klaudia Valentz.
We also learn the debut date, which will be July 1. That’s quite appropriate considering that the theme of the original game revolved around a summer adventure. There will also be a screening event in Japan on June 17, but unfortunately, most of us will have to sit out of that one.
You can watch the trailer below.
If you’re unfamiliar with the series, Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout originally debuted in 2019. It immediately became one of the most popular Atelier games also thanks to the popularity of Ryza herself, propelled by the charming character design by Toridamono.
The sequel Atelier Ryza 2: Lost Legends & the Secret Fairy was released between the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021 across Japan and the West, and recently we got the third game, Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & Secret Key, which is the fastest game of the series and concluded Ryza’s adventures, at least in video game form.
You can read our review of the latest game, in which our Isaac Todd praised the “engaging gameplay loop that never gets boring.”
