New 'Toward the Terra' to TV in Tokyo

Keiko Takemiya's classic 1970s science fiction manga "Toward the Terra", previously adapted in movie form in 1980, is returning in television anime form this April on Mainichi Broadcasting and Tokyo Broadcasting stations.

The series is set in the far future, after mankind has fled the polluted Earth to live in computer-regulated space colonies. On the fringes of society dwell the MU, feared and hunted psychics who dream of one day returning to Earth. MU leader Soldier Blue and his successor Jomy begin an epic struggle to find a homeland for their people.

The new adaptation will be directed by Osamu Yamazaki, with concept designs by Yutaka Izubuchi (Mobile Police Patlabor, Birdy the Mighty, Armored Trooper VOTOMS The Heretic Saint and Eureka Seven) and character designs by Nobuteru Yuuki (Vision of Escaflowne).

The series has an official website, but it is currently blank.
