Cartier Partners with Naoki Urasawa for New Anime Launch

In an exciting venture, French luxury brand Cartier has joined forces with renowned anime studio Production I.G to create an anime inspired by its celebrated LA PANTHÈRE DE CARTIER brand. Esteemed manga artist Naoki Urasawa, known for works such as Monster and 20th Century Boys, will play a significant role in the creative process, providing insights and artistic direction.

The anime's music will be composed by Ayatake Ezaki, recognized for his contributions to the film 5 Centimeters per Second and the musical BELLE. Japanese singer Miu Sakamoto will lend her voice for the lyrics, while actress Mitsuki Takahata is not just singing but also starring in the anime alongside notable actors Kaya Kiyohara, Tomo Yamaguchi, and Ken Watanabe.

Scheduled to premiere on the LINE VOOM platform on September 18, this launch strategically precedes the grand opening of the Cartier Ginza 4-Chome Boutique in Tokyo. While a general release of the anime is planned, details regarding additional platforms remain undisclosed.

This collaboration merges high fashion and anime, promising an innovative storytelling experience that fans of both industries won't want to miss. Stay tuned for more updates!
