Deep Insanity will not just be limited to anime as it aims to branch out into other media as well.
The catch, however, is that none of them have the same storyline. Yes, you read that right! The manga, anime, and the game follow stories that are set in different timelines of the world.
The Deep Insanity franchise revealed a PV for the upcoming anime, Deep Insanity: The Lost Child, that will premiere in October 2021.
The main plot of the franchise focuses on this widespread disease called the Randolph Syndrome. The disease immediately sends the person into a comatose state.
The syndrome is believed to have originated from the South Pole in a place called ‘Asylum,’ which has many mysteries hidden inside.
The anime centers around the protagonist Daniel Kai Shigure, who, as shown in the PV, visits the Asylum and is standing on its edge. He has a certain wish he hopes to fulfill there.
Hiro Shimono voices Daniel’s character. Hiro has also played Conny Springer in Attack on Titan and Zenitsu Agatsuma in Demon Slayer.
The anime is set in the period between the manga and the game’s storylines.
