Shueisha's Jump SQ magazine and the official website for the TV anime adaptation of Shō Aimoto's Kemono Jihen (Monster Incidents) manga has released a new key visual and main cast information.
Masaya Fujimori is directing the anime at Ajia-do. Noboru Kimura is in charge of series composition and scripts. Nozomi Tachibana is designing the characters.
The Kemono Jihen Wiki page summarizes the series as:
When a series of animal bodies that rot away after a single night begin appearing in a remote mountain village, Inugami, a detective from Tokyo who specializes in the occult, is called to investigate.
While working the case, he befriends a strange boy who works in the field every day instead of going to school. Shunned by his peers and nicknamed "Dorotabo" after a yokai that lives in the mud, he helps Inugami uncover the truth behind the killings - but supernatural forces are at work, and while Dorotabo is just a nickname, it might not be the only thing about the boy that isn't human.
