posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
Mainichi Shimbun began streaming an "ending version" promotional video on Tuesday for Fuji TV's upcoming Noitamina anime series Nanana's Buried Treasure. The video previews voice actress unit Sphere's ending theme "Kasukana Hisokana Tashikana Mirai."
The anime is based on Kazuma Ōtorino's original novel. The story centers around the treasure of Nanana, a ghost who was once a beautiful but NEET (Not in Education, Employment or Training) girl. A boy named Jūgo was disowned by his father and forced to transfer to a high school on the "Special Student Zone," an artificial island. With only 40,000 yen (about US$400) a month to live on, Jūgo chooses a low-rent apartment that happens to be haunted by Nanana. Jūgo and members of the school's adventure club join a "treasure hunt royale" on the island for the Nanana Collection, a treasure that possesses a mysterious power.
The voice cast includes:
Rui Tanabe as Nanana Ryūgajō
Yūki Ono as Jūgo Yama

Additionally, Tetsuya Kawakami (chief animation director and sub-character design for Sword Art Online) will adapt Akaringo's novel illustrations for animation, and Keigo Hoashi (Dusk maiden of Amnesia) and monaca (Star Driver, Wagnaria!!, Aikatsu!) will handle the music.
