Moonrise was announced back in June of this year, and WIT Studio president and CEO George Wada described concept:
“Moonrise” takes place in the near future and will be set in both the Moon and on Earth. WIT STUDIO will forces with Mr. Ubukata, who is known for the popular series of “Mardock Scramble” (Winner of the Nihon SF Taisho Award) and the historical novel “The Universe Revealed” (Winner of the Booksellers Award).

“Moonrise” will portray the lives of two men, Jack and Al, as they confront various hardships in the vast world of outer space. All action and scenery in the unexplored parts of the Moon will be illustrated using an innovative type of animation unlike any seen before. My sincere wish is that this project inspires contemporary lives everywhere.
