The original Shirobako television anime focuses primarily on Aoi Miyamori, a production assistant at a fictional anime studio called Musashino Animations.
The staff for the all-new Shirobako Movie (Gekijō-ban Shirobako) project announced at the KyoMAF event in Kyoto on Saturday that Ayane Sakura will voice a new character in the film named Kaede Miyai.
The returning staff includes director Tsutomu Mizushima, animation studio P.A. Works, series script supervisor Michiko Yokote, character designer Ponkan8, animation character designer and chief animation director Kanami Sekiguchi, and production company Infinite.
The story follows the daily office life and problems that arise in an animation studio, and the workflow in making an anime.
