The 16th issue of this year's Shogakukan's Weekly Shonen Sunday magazine revealed on Wednesday that Kazuhiro Fujita's Karakuri Circus (Le Cirque de Karakuri) manga will get a TV anime adaptation. The 15th issue of the magazine had teased last Wednesday that the 16th issue would have an "important announcement" related to Fujita or his Sou-Bou-Tei Kowasubeshi manga, which is currently running in the magazine.
Fujita serialized Karakuri Circus in Weekly Shonen Sunday from 1997 to 2006, and Shogakukan published 43 volumes for the manga. Shogakukan released the manga in a new wide edition with 23 volumes from 2011 to 2013.
The story revolves around Masaru Saiga, a fifth-grade boy who wants to become a puppeteer. After the death of Sadayoshi Saiga, the CEO of the giant intercom manufacturer Saiga and Masaru's father, Masaru inherits 18 billion yen. Masaru becomes targeted for his wealth and is saved by two individuals. Narumi KatÅ is a man who has studied kung fu and has a strange illness called "Zonapha Syndrome," and Shirogane is a silver-haired woman who controls the puppet "Arurukan" (Harlequin). Together, Masaru, Narumi, and Shirogane are thrown into various conspiracies by those who would try to steal Masaru's fortune.
