New clip from the anime All You Need Is Kill by Studio4�C

The new anime film from the well-known Studio4�C, titled All You Need Is Kill, opens in Japanese theaters today. Below you'll find an unreleased clip featuring a fight scene featuring the protagonist.

It is an adaptation of Hiroshi Sakurazaka's All You Need Is Kill science fiction novel, published by Shueisha in 2004, a story that has already inspired the American blockbuster Edge of Tomorrow with Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt but will be told from a new point of view.

The novel is set in a future Earth under attack by alien invaders known as Mimics. Humanity's infantry goes into battle in powered armor suits that enhance their deadliness, but they are still losing the war. Keiji Kiriya is a newly enlisted soldier, but dies in his first battle. After he dies, he finds himself awakening to a time prior to the battle, having inexplicably entered a time loop. Through a repeating process of dying and learning from his mistakes, he slowly finds a way to live longer and longer, and finds himself drawn to an elite soldier named Rita Vrataski.

The director is Kenichiro Akimoto (CGI director for Children of the Sea, unit director for Nikuko's Fortune), the screenplay is by Yuichiro Kido, the character designs are by Izumi Murakami, and the music is by Yasuhiro Maeda.

Produced by Warner Bros. Japan and Studio4°C, the anime film opens today January 9 in Japanese theaters and in North America on January 16, distributed by GKIDS.
