© CLEARRAVE / PALETTE ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.The 9-nine- Ruler’s Crown TV anime’s second trailer has been unveiled alongside the announcement of a one-hour premiere set for July 5 JST. This premiere will showcase the first two episodes of the anime.
Within the trailer, viewers can listen to the newly introduced opening song “ResoNAnce” performed by Araki.
9-nine- Ruler’s Crown draws inspiration from the PALETTE-developed visual novel series 9-nine-, which premiered in 2017. The episodes of the visual novel began releasing on Steam with English support in 2019. On Steam, 9-nine-: Episode 1 is described as:
9-nine- Episode 1 is the inaugural volume in a series of supernatural mystery games, with this first episode focusing on a narrative surrounding Miyako Kujo. The entries in the 9-nine- series inhabit the same setting and universe, but each installment centers on a different heroine. The story is set in the town of Shiromitsugawa, where mysterious Artifacts grant extraordinary powers to their Users. It explores themes of deepening trust and budding romance between the protagonist and the heroine against a backdrop of a murder mystery involving a series of supernatural killings. Each game presents an independent narrative that can be enjoyed in isolation. We hope you appreciate the journey that is the 9-nine- series.
