#On the Movements of the Earth Anime’s Teaser Reveals October 2024 Release
A teaser trailer has been released for the Madhouse-produced TV anime adaptation of the Orb: On the Movements of the Earth manga. Also revealed were a planned October 2024 premiere, a teaser visual, and the main cast.
Maaya Sakamoto is voicing protagonist Rafal. Joining her are Kenjiro Tsuda as Novak and Sho Hayami as Hubert.
The Orb: On the Movements of the Earth anime was announced in June 2022, the same month as the release of the manga’s eighth and final tankoubon volume. The manga by Uoto was serialized from 2020 to 2022 in Shogakukan’s Big Comic Spirits and was the Best Comic category winner of the 54th Seiun Award.
Seven Seas Entertainment describes the plot as:
In fifteenth-century Europe, heretics are being burned at the stake. Rafal, a brilliant young man, is expected to enter university at an early age and study the era’s most important field, theology. But Rafal values Reason above all else, which leads him both to the shocking conclusion that the Earth orbits the Sun, and into the hands of the Inquisition!
A decade later, two members of the Watch Guild, the dour young Oczy and the cynical Gras, find a hidden stone chest that details the secrets of the universe Rafal left behind. Dare they try to change their own stars by selling the heretical texts, or would that only lead to the stake and the fire?
