Taichi Ishidate (episodes of Clannad After Story, Hyōka, K-ON) is directing the anime at Kyoto Animation, and Jukki Hanada (Gakuen Alice, Chūnibyō demo Koi ga Shitai!, Steins;Gate) is in charge of the series scripts. Miku Kadowaki (The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya, K-ON! movie animation director) is designing the characters.
The dark fantasy follows a high school sophomore named Akihito Kanbara. Although the boy appears human, he is half Yōmu and invulnerable to wounds because he can heal quickly. One day, Akihito meets freshman Mirai Kuriyama when it seems she is about to jump from the school rooftop. Mirai is isolated because of her ability to manipulate blood, which is unique even among members of the underworld. Disturbing events begin to unfold after Akihito saves Mirai.
Kyōkai no Kanata received an honorable mention in the novel category of the Kyoto Animation Award program in 2011. The studio released the first volume last year, and the second volume shipped in April.
The anime is scheduled to premiere on Japanese television in October.

Hey guy's. Gonna start out with a very unfortunate news. News At around 5 a.m. on Tuesday, manga creator Jun Sadogawa (Real name: Mutsumi Kawato) was found deceased by hanging in the Shinsui Park located in Tone City's Kitaosoma District in Ibaraki Prefecture. He was 34 years old. He was found by a 60-year old man who happened to be passing by. The Ibaraki Prefecture police suspect that Sadogawa committed suicide by the state of the location Sadogawa was found. According to the police's announcement, Sadogawa was found hanging from a tree with a rope tied around his neck, and he had passed away around dawn. Sadogawa's identity was confirmed by his driver's license, and his vehicle was found in the park's parking lot. There was no suicide note in his belongings. Sadogawa was born in the Kitasoma District, and was currently serializing his Amane Atatameru manga in Akita Shoten's Weekly Shōnen Champion magazine at the time of his death. He is possibly best known for his Muteki Kanban Musume (Ramen Fighter Miki) manga, which was adapted into an anime in 2006. ADV Manga had released the manga in North America as Noodle Fighter Miki, and Media Blasters licensed the anime for North American release.
