“#Tanjiro VA Leads Original TV Anime Odd Taxi from Pokémon Studio OLM”
A new original anime is on the way from P.I.C.S. and Pokémon studio OLM. Manga author Kadzuya Konomoto (Seto Utsumi) pens the story of Odd Taxi, with Natsuki Hanae (Tanjiro Kamado in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba) in the lead and sights set on an April premiere on TV Tokyo and AT-X in Japan.
The story of Odd Taxi follows an eccentric taxi driver named Kotogawa, who has conversations with a wide variety of passengers, from a college student trying to go viral to a secretive nurse, a failed comedian, an aspiring idol, and more. It sounds kind of like a bizarro Taxi Cab Confessions, only these conversations end up leading to a girl who has disappeared.
Check out a teaser and key visual below.
