The manga template "Ganglion" by Hisaya Shiraiwa and Takashi Itsuki is being adapted into an anime series. A key visual as well as information regarding the voice cast were announced for the reveal.
The plot of the series revolves around the "Ganglion Corporation", a company with ambitious world domination plans in early 2000s Tokyo. The protagonist is the employee Isobe, who gets involved in numerous seemingly absurd operations. Despite his dedication - he often appears dressed only in tights - he regularly fails against the hero HopeMan and also has to deal with the extravagant demands of his superiors.
The German dubbing is done by Yōji Ueda in the role of Isobe Kenji. Other voice actors include, among others, Fumihiko Tachibaki as Shadow Colonel, Tomokazu Sugita as HopeMan, Aoi Koga as Isobe Setsuko, Yoshino Aoyama as Isobe Takashi, Hikaru Tōno as Yumiko, and Osamu Itao as market stall owner.
Ayumu Watanabe is in charge of directing the animation work, while Shigeru Fujita leads the character design. The script adaptation is handled by Tomoaki Shino, and the animation production is by studio maf.
The published key visual shows the protagonist Isobe handing over his business card in his function as an employee of the Ganglion Corporation. Additionally, an official website and social media channels have been set up.
