The arrival of 2024 means a new winter anime season is beginning. Anime fans are already placing their bets on which show will be the season’s biggest hit and which anime will be the star of 2024. One anime, Ishura, is currently dominating these conversations, which may take some anime fans by surprise. Ishura has experienced a meteoric rise to fame, one so quick that it was easy to miss, making it look like it appeared out of nowhere. But what is the Ishura franchise? How did it become popular, and why is it in the running for 2024’s best anime?Ishura started life as a light novel series. The author, Keiso, started self-publishing it on the Kakuyomu and Shosetsuka ni Naro websites in 2017. The series quickly gained a sizable fanbase, and ASCII Media Works, the firm behind the famous light novel imprint Dengeki Bunko, picked up the series. The firm’s first move was to republish the series, now with art drawn by Kureta, under their Dengeki no Shin Bungei label, starting in 2019. At the time of writing, this novel has been collected into eight volumes, with the most recent volume landing on October 17th, 2023. In early February, Japanese readers will get their hands on the ninth volume.Finally, the latest addition to the franchise is the widely talked about anime release. First announced in February 2023, the series is produced by Passione, who previously worked on Higurashi: When They Cry – Gou, Harem in the Labyrinth of Another World, and Rail Wars! The CGI in the series is handled by Sanzigen, the studio that also did the animation for Sakura Wars the Animation, Black Rock Shooter, and the second and third seasons of BanG Dream! The series’ director is Yuki Ogawa, who previously directed the well-reviewed Interspecies Reviewers and the FLCL Progressive movie, so it’s easy to see why anime fans are excited about this series.
