Production

The anime was announced in June 2021 by Square Enix during a 30th anniversary livestream for the Mana video game series. The anime was animated by Yokohama Animation Laboratory and Graphinica, with Warner Bros. Japan producing the series.[5] The project began after a Warner Bros. employee approached Masaru Oyamada, the producer of the Mana video games, and delivered a "passionate" pitch for a Legend of Mana adaptation.[6] This in turn was what led to the development of a remaster of the Legend of Mana video game.[7] The series was written and directed by Masato Jinbo, with character designs handled by Taro Ikegami based on the original designs by HACCAN, and music composed by Yoko Shimomura.[1] The series aired from October 8 to December 24, 2022, on the Super Animeism block on MBS, TBS, and other networks.[8][3][lower-alpha 1] Saori Hayami performed the opening theme song "Tear of Will" composed by Kevin Penkin.[9][2] Crunchyroll licensed the series.[10]
