A new action-fantasy anime by renowned animation studios MAPPA and Madhouse titledtakt:op(pronounced takt opus) has got its second promotional video which teases the show’s opening theme song and the character’s voices.
Takt:opis set in the future, specifically America in 2047, where one day a meteorite hit the planet which changed the world forever. The meteorite created villainous monsters which are called D2 and threaten humanity. One of the first things the D2 did was banning all music, as that is one thing that is able to defeat them. Think of a more musicalA Quiet Place.
However, this story is about those who were brave enough to resist the reign of the D2. They are young women who are endowed with musical powers, the Musicart, and those who are able to lead these women, the Conductors. Our main protagonist is Takt, a Conductor, who partners up with a young Musicart named Destiny who holds the score for Beethoven’s “Symphony No. 5 in C Minor Op. 67”. Takt longs for music to be reestablished in the world while Destiny wishes for the destruction of the evil D2.
