Amazon Prime Video announced on Thursday that the live-action film of Kaiji Kawaguchi’s The Silent Service manga will be continuing the story in a live-action series on the service.
Chinmoku no Kantai Season 1: Tokyowan Daikaisen (Silent Service Season 1: The Battle of Tokyo Bay) will debut on February 9 with the first six episodes.
Takao Osawa and Shinzō Matsuhashi produced the live-action film, Kōhei Yoshino directed the film, and Hikaru Takai wrote the script.
The manga already inspired a television anime special from Sunrise in 1996, followed by Sunrise’s two-part original video anime from 1997 to 1998.
