The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes is an award-winning light novel from Mei Hachimoku and Kukka that’s getting an anime adaptation.
We’re waiting to see whether this breathtaking animation will get an international release, but the Japanese premiere will be in September.
Studio CLAP is making The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes and director Tomoshisa Taguchi is at the helm.
The cast includes Oji Suzuka as Kaoru Tono and Marie Iitoyo as Anzu Hanashiro, and they’re voice actors relatively new to a broad audience. It’ll be a critical project for both.
There’s an English version of the novel published by Seven Seas Entertainment. They say;
One summer morning before school, Kaoru hears an unsettling rumor—of a mysterious tunnel that can grant any wish to those who enter it, but ages them dramatically in exchange. At first, he writes it off as nothing more than an urban legend, but that very night, he happens upon the selfsame passage: the Urashima Tunnel. As he stands before its gaping maw, a thought occurs to him—if this tunnel truly does have the power to grant any wish, could he use it to bring his younger sister back from her untimely death five years prior?
Yet when he returns to explore the tunnel the next day, he finds he’s been followed by the new girl in class: a total enigma by the name of Anzu. She takes an interest in Kaoru, and they agree to work together to investigate the time-twisting tunnel and uncover its mysteries. Together, they might achieve their deepest desires…but are they prepared for what it may cost them?
