The film is the first project in Cyber Group Studios and Nippon Animation’s partnership, which will see joint productions of new properties as well as reboots of “Nippon Animation’s classic series.”
The series is part of Nippon Animation’s “World Masterpiece Theater,” but unlike the other adapted works in the series Tico and Friends was an original work.
Production company Cyber Group Studios announced on Tuesday that it is partnering with Nippon Animation to co-produce an animated film based on the Tico and Friends anime titled Nanami and the Quest for Atlantis.
Nanami and the Quest for Atlantis is set in the gold rush era, around 1850, and explores the relationship between humans and nature.
