Scarlet
Directed by Mamoru Hosoda
Produced by Studio Chizu, Nippon Television Network Corporation
A dark, metaphysically charged anime about a princess navigating a surreal afterlife realm, driven by vengeance and the existential threat of obliteration.
After failing to avenge her father's murder, Princess Scarlet, wakes up in the "Land of the Dead." In this world filled with madness, if she does not achieve her revenge against her nemesis and reach the "No End Place," she will become "Void" and cease to exist. Can Scarlet find a way to live at the end of her endless journey?
