Studio Trigger animated 2014 series about students with supernatural powers

Sentai Filmworks announced on Wednesday that it has licensed the anime When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace and plans to release the series digitally and on home video.

The 12-episode anime premiered in October 2014, and Crunchyroll streamed the series as it aired in Japan.

Masanori Takahashi directed the series at animation studio Trigger with series composition by Masahiko Otsuka. Satoshi Yamaguchi designed the characters for the anime, and Elements Garden provided the music.

The anime adapts Kota Nozomi's Inou Battle Within Everyday Life (Inō-Battle wa Nichijō-kei no Naka de/Inou-Battle in the Usually Daze) novel series. In the original novel series' story, the five members of the literature club awakened with extraordinary powers half a year ago. Although the members expected to be thrown into a world of super-powered battles (inō-battle) at their school, their normal daily routine continued. No secret organizations bent on world destruction, no super-powered wars, no braves or demon kings.
