Chikyūgai Shōnen Shōjo (Japanese: 地球外少年少女, transl. "Extraterrestrial boys and girls") is a Japanese animated science fiction film written and directed by Mitsuo Iso, scheduled for release in 2022. Character designs for the anime are provided by Kenichi Yoshida.
Production[]
The film's production was announced on 20 May 2018, followed by the announcement on 27 October 2020 that production started on a full-scale and that the film would be released in early 2022, with investment from Avex Pictures, Asmik Ace and others.[1][2] Signal.MD was originally attached to animate the project, but it was later changed to Production +h, a new studio founded by Fuminori Honda, ex-Production I.G and ex-Signal-MD producer.[3][4]
Plot[]
The story takes place in the year 2045 in outer space, where AI, the internet and social networking sites are widespread. A massive accident occurs on a newly opened Japanese commercial space station, and a group of children are left behind. With no hope of rescue from adults, their lifeline is a barely surviving narrowband, a social network, a free application of low-intelligence AI and a drone controlled by a AR[disambiguation needed]-based mobile device called "Smart". Will they be able to use these tools to survive the crisis?[5][6][7]
