-synopsis-

"As the world is in the middle of an industrial revolution, a monster appears that cannot be defeated unless its heart, which is protected by a layer of iron, is pierced. By infecting humans with its bite, the monster can create aggressive and undead creatures known as Kabane. On the island Hinomoto, located in the far east, people have built stations to shelter themselves from these creatures. People access the station, as well as transport wares between them, with the help of a locomotive running on steam, called Hayajiro. Ikoma, a boy who lives in the Aragane station and helps to build Hayajiro, creates his own weapon called Tsuranukizutsu in order to defeat the creatures.
One day, as he waits for an opportunity to use his weapon, he meets a girl named Mumei, who is excused from the mandatory Kabane inspection. During the night, Ikuma meets Mumei again as he sees Hayajiro going out of control. The staff on the locomotive has turned into the creatures. The station, now under attack by Kabane, is the opportunity Ikoma has been looking for."


Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress is an anime series by Wit Studio, the people who brought us "Attack on Titan" "Hōzuki no Reitetsu" "The "Rolling Girls" and "Seraph of the End".

Even though only the first two episodes are out at the moment it does look like it will be shaping up to be yet another awesome anime from Wit Studio, I do suggest giving adding it to you anime watch list.

Oh this is on my list ;) it seems a LOT like aot but i hope it's better than just some cheap knock off

>>2 As I said it's made by Wit Studio who did "Attack on Titan" I didn't check if was the same director :P so if some or a lot of the art style looks familiar you know why, also I did list some of Wit Studio's anime in the OP.

no. 2 on my list

Love this anime. Can't wait for the third episode to come out

>>2 Just did a little digging on wiki it is the same director who did "Attack on Titan" who is doing "Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress", and yes they are written by different people.

Also it's unlikely a cheap knock off with the info I just gave you.

>>5 I also can't wait for the next episode to come out :D

bump

i loooove it
