The Blue Giant manga will receive an anime movie adaptation in 2022. Shinichi Ishizuka, the creator of the series, has revealed an illustration to commemorate the movie being greenlit.
Dai Miyamoto, Yukinori Sawabe, and Yukinori Tamada are the main characters who are drawn. They play the saxophone, jazz piano, and drums, respectively.
