The production of the new anime "Tokyo Override" has been confirmed, with an exclusive global release on Netflix later this year.

Setting and Plot:

"Tokyo Override" is set 100 years in the future and depicts a Tokyo where artificial intelligence is seamlessly integrated into daily life, and all urban living has been automated. Although society appears ideal, a hidden malevolence lurks beneath the surface. The anime follows a group of outsiders who uncover these dark secrets through thrilling motorcycle action.

Characters and Story:

On June 7, stills from the anime were revealed. The story centers on a lonely teenage hacker who, at the request of his only friend, encounters a group of outsiders who ride motorcycles—vehicles that are nearly extinct in this advanced world. Together, they investigate a fatal accident and uncover shocking truths about their seemingly utopian city.

Direction and Collaboration:

The anime is co-directed by Yusuke Fukada, known for his work on the series "Ultimate Beastmaster" under the production of Sylvester Stallone, and Veerapatra Jinanavin, who brings experience from major Hollywood studios. In collaboration with Yamaha Motor Co. and Honda Motor Co., the anime will feature both real and original motorcycle designs, bringing the futuristic world to life with roaring engines.
