Rewording: The songs "End of Days" by ReoNa and "Truth" by Hana Itoki are performed as the opening and ending themes respectively for some anime series.
The franchise features a new web anime called "U Takes Terra," which was directed by Jun Aoki (Pop Team Epic, Gal & Dino, On Air Dekinai!). This series revolves around the joke character U-Official (also known as Streamer U), who is always unlucky and is part of the VTuber franchise. The first episode was released in English in October, with the rest of the anime set to debut in 2025.
In this game, the setting is a fantasy realm named Terra that features elements of science fiction. This land faces frequent Catastrophes that force people to live in mobile cities due to their destructive nature. These events also bring out Originium, a mineral that provides high energy but consumes everything around it as it grows. Prolonged exposure to Originium causes Oripathy, a wasting disease. The narrative focuses on the lives of those affected by this disease. Rhodes Island, a traveling medical organization, offers assistance and a sense of belonging for the Infected. However, they have had to engage in paramilitary actions against the Reunion Movement, a terrorist group that seeks to harm governments that oppress the Infected through violent means.
In May 2019, Chinese studios Studio Montagne and Hypergryph launched the game in China. Then Yostar introduced it globally in January 2020. Since then, several promotional videos have been created for the game, including nine-minute animated " Holy Knight Light " short film which was released to commemorate its first anniversary in December 2021.
In October 2022, The Arknights: Prelude to Dawn anime was released with eight episodes. Crunchyroll broadcasted the series as it was being shown in Japan.
The Arknights: Perish in Frost television anime debuted in October 2023 and had eight episodes.
