MBC Group and Tokyopop have announced their investment in two new anime productions, Acro Trip and Season 2 of Kami.App . The shows are slated for release in Japan and the Middle East this month. They will stream as simulcasts on Shahid this month.
Comedic action-adventure series Acro Trip is directed by Ayumu Kotake, known for his work on Golden Kamuy: Season Three, with character designs by Kei Umabiki. Based on the Shueisha manga by Yone Sawata, the series brings a mix of lighthearted fun and exciting battles, making it a must-watch for fans of the genre. All episodes of Season One are scheduled to stream this year, with a passionate fan base already awaiting future developments.
Season 2 of Kami.App has been created by Yoko Taro (video game director of Nier), written by Jin (creator of Kagerou Daze), and directed by Hiroyuki Seshita (Knights of Sidonia, Ajin, and Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters). The new season will delve deeper into the fierce battle royale where high school students continue their struggle to become the ultimate kami, wielding immense power to shape the world.
Both shows underscore MBC Group and Tokyopop’s commitment to delivering top-tier anime content to the MENA region, with a strong focus on high-quality storytelling and immersive visual experiences. With exclusive sneak peeks for fans and more productions planned, MBC’s Shahid is set to become the go-to destination for anime enthusiasts across the region.
