“Jellyfish Can’t Swim at Night” is directed by Ryohei Takeshita and written by Yuki Yaku, a character designed by popman3580 and a character designed by Junichiro Taniguchi. It is an entirely original work with a gorgeous lineup.
The animation was produced by Douga Koubou, a studio that gained a lot of attention worldwide with the TV anime “Oshi no Ko”, and has often been talked about on social media as the most famous work of 2024. The critical visual released this time depicts Mahiru and his friends gathered in Shibuya at night, chatting with a jellyfish mural behind them. The atmosphere is different from the visuals released so far, and it is a street-style illustration where the four people’s daily lives blend into the city’s background.
In addition, the new character “JELEE-chan” is also included in the illustration. It is an illustration of a girl imitating a jellyfish drawn by Mahiru. It is said to be the mascot character of anonymous artist “JELEE.” If you are interested, check out the character visuals released on the official website. It was also announced that Harami-chan will be in charge of the piano performance sound source for the movie.
The sound source that Harami played is used in Mei’s piano performance scene, which is partially shown in the PV. Please look forward to the broadcast to see what the scene will be like.
