Yomiuri TV Enterprise and Funimation announced that they will co-produce an anime series adapting Bun'ō Fujisawa's MARS RED, which will premiere in 2021.
Funimation describes the anime:
MARS RED is set in 1923, and vampires have existed for quite some time. However, the number of vampires is now increasing, and a mysterious artificial blood source called Ascra has appeared.
The Japanese government, in turn, establishes "Code Zero," a unit within the military tasked with eliminating vampire forces. And what better way to track vampires than with the help of vampires?
This unit, created by Lieutenant General Nakajima, previously dealt with information warfare but has been reassigned to resolve the vampire crisis. It’s up to Code Zero and the S-class vampire Deffrot to investigate this surge and stop it before society collapses.
Further details are still pending.
Update from March 4:
The first promotional video for the series has now been released. The video provides a preview of the anime.
