by The events of the past are gradually revealed.
As the fall 2025 anime season enters its second half, stories are picking up pace. Science fiction, in particular, is packed with hidden mysteries, making plot twists unpredictable.
First, PAWORKS’ original anime “Eternal Yugure” is set in the near future. The story follows the protagonist, Akira Himegami (voiced by Shuichiro Umeda), who awakens from cold sleep, and his beloved girlfriend, an android named Yugure (voiced by Yui Ishikawa), as they journey through the world and discover diverse values.
The events that occurred while Akira was in cold sleep have led to the decline of civilization. Social values are also changing, with contractual relationships such as “Elsie,” which are open to partners of any age, gender, or number, becoming mainstream, rather than marriage, which typically involves choosing a single partner.
In episode 8, the forbidden book “Special Blood” that Akira retrieved from the library hinted at the existence of humans with special abilities and the background to the world’s collapse. It also became clear that Yugure had information about Akira’s lover, “Towasa Oh Maki (CV: Ai Kayano),” whom he had been searching for but had been hiding.
With more hints about the secrets of the worldview, viewers expressed interest, saying things like, “I’m curious about what happened in the last 200 years,” and “It’s disturbing why civilization has degenerated to this extent,” and their expectations for the truth of the story are rising.
