Bandai Namco Arts, DeNA Unveil 'Takt Op.' Original Anime Project

Bandai Namco Arts and DeNA announced an original project titled Takt Op. on Friday. The companies also opened an official website, revealing the cast, participating creators, project promo, and main visual (pictured next to project promo). The mixed-media project will include a television anime and game, and is scheduled to debut this year.

Introduction
The musical composition formed a dwelling power in the girl. A legendary opera, a magnificent composition created in the past. A new life—"Musicart"—imbued with the score.

An ephemeral, beautiful, and fateful tale of girls fighting with the power of musical scores in a world where music has been forgotten. They just aim for the delight that lies beyond. Takt Op. connects music to tomorrow.
