Anohana 10th Anniversary Event Announced With New Visual

Anime drama Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day is getting an event on August 28 to celebrate its 10th anniversary. A visual featuring the grown-up versions of the still-living members of the Super Peace Busters was also released.

Anohana‘s staff included Tatsuyuki Nagai as director, Mari Okada as script writer, and Masayoshi Tanaka as character designer, with A-1 Pictures in charge of the animation production. Nagai, Okada, and Tanaka, who collectively formed the Super Peace Busters creative team, collaborated on the teen drama anime movies Anthem of the Heart and Her Blue Sky after their work on Anohana.

Anohana premiered in 2011 and received an anime film sequel in 2013. The anime also inspired a novelization, manga series, visual novel, and TV drama. It also won the Spring 2011 Run-off Polls of Anime Trending’s Decade Awards.

Crunchyroll describes the anime as:

Jinta Yadomi and his group of childhood friends have become estranged after a tragic accident split them apart. Now in their high school years, a sudden surprise forces each of them to confront their guilt over what happened that day and come to terms with the ghosts of their past.

Melvyn originally wanted to write about video games, and he did so for a few years, starting from his college days. He still writes about video games sometimes, but now focuses on anime-related news content and the occasional review. Some of his free time is spent self-learning Japanese, both out of interest in the language and because English-translated light novels and manga are expensive. Every anime season, Melvyn looks forward to discovering new standout episodes and OP/ED animation sequences, as well as learning about the storyboard artists and directors behind them.
