© 梅津泰臣,シャフト/アニプレックスVirgin Punk: Clockwork Girl made its debut in Japanese theaters on June 27 JST. Set in the year 2099, the anime portrays a world where the Medical Android Technology Somadea has enabled humanity to overcome injuries and illnesses, but it has also led to crimes due to its abilities to enhance physical traits. Ubu Kamigori, a bounty hunter on the trail of criminals, encounters a man named Mr. Elegance, who she has a “sordid history” with, waiting for her in her home.
This project marks Umetsu’s first full directorial endeavor since Wizard Barristers in 2014 and is also his inaugural project with Shaft. Additionally, it serves as the first installment in the series.
