It is officially announced today that an anime adaptation of Uoto’s historical manga Chi -Chikyu no Undou ni Tsuite- (Chi: On the Movements of the Earth) is now in the works by Madhouse (Summer Wars).
Set in 15th century Europe, the manga depicts people risking their lives to study the heretical idea of the geocentric theory.
I remember well how I used to walk by Madhouse every week when I went to my friend’s house in Nakano a few years ago.
