Fantasia Sango Anime Suffers Major Blow as Release Date Postponed

China’s Three Kingdoms era has inspired many fascinating stories, everything ranging from grand warfare to the nitty-gritty of politics.

The scale of Three Kingdoms is so vast that even after countless movies, video games, anime, and manga adaptations, there seems to be no shortage of stories to be told.

So in it jumps the upcoming anime series Fantasia Sango to add its animesque take on the classic tale this October, or so we thought.

The official website for Fantasia Sango’s upcoming anime adaptation titled “Tengen Reishinki” announced Today (September 10) that the production committee has decided to postpone the anime release due to “various reasons.”

Previously, the anime was supposed to premiere on October 5, 2021, but the new schedule is yet to be updated. 

Fantasia Sango: Tengen Reishinki’s story is described as:

Set during the Three Kingdoms era when powerful warlords and their armies were at each other’s throats to unify China. But their constant warfare soon attracts the attention of the evil Mouryou King, who aims to prolong the war and ultimately destroy humanity. 

Opposing him is a rag-tag team of adventurers led by seal practitioner Ōki as they battle against the evil machinations of Mouryou King and his cronies.

Studio Geek Toys, known for their work in “Black Clover“ and “Haikyu!! To The Top,” is currently developing Fantasia Sango anime. 

Director Shunsuke Machitani, known for Planetarian, is helming the anime project. While writer Masashi Suzuki, known for his work in “I couldn’t become a hero, so I reluctantly decided to get a job,” is in charge of the script. 

Though getting postponed is not anything new for the anime industry this year. Still, Fantasia Sango’s fans are pretty lucky as it gives them time to experience the vast library of the original games.
