It is confirmed today that Tokyo-based production company Gonzo (Aokana: Four Rhythm Across the Blue) is now working on a TV anime adaptation of Mobcast's puzzle RPG for Android and iOS, 18: Kimi to Tsunagaru Puzzle (The Puzzle that Connects to You), for a premiere on Tokyo MX and BS Fuji in 2017.

The game started its service in March 2015 and has been downloaded over 2 million times. The story

is set in a dream world where the player has to find a party and fight at the "Dream Masters" stadium

to save the Sleeping Princess.

The TV anime tentatively titled "18 Anime" is the second program from the "The Art of 18" project that

features original stories created by various artists based on the world setting of the game. The first

program is a 360° VR trailer "18 YumeSekai (Dream World) VR" produced by internationally acclaimed

animator/director Koji Morimoto (Robot Carnival, Memories, Noiseman Sound Insect). He also serves

as the general supervisor for the TV anime series.
