Kabukicho Sherlock is directed by Ai Yoshimura and features animation production by Production I.G. The series will broadcast in Japan on Fridays during the 25:55 time slot (actually at 1:55am JST on Saturday morning) as part of the Mainichi Broadcasting System / Tokyo Broadcasting System “Animeism” programming block beginning on October 11, 2019.
A new preview video highlights the unique blend of comedy and drama offered up in Kabukicho Sherlock, an upcoming original TV anime that re-imagines the characters from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic detective novels as modern day sleuths bumming around edges of Tokyo’s nightlife scene.
