Bushiroad announced on Friday that the first project as part of its new partnership with media company Broccoli is a collaboration between Di Gi Charat and Bushiroad’s Lost Decade smartphone game, as part of an overall plan to “reboot” Broccoli’s Di Gi Charat franchise.
Bushiroad released the smartphone game on September 21, and characters from Di Gi Charat will appear the game for a limited time.
The 16-episode original Di Gi Charat television anime series aired in 1999.
