Collar x Malice is a popular single-player adventure RPG for the Switch with a complex and compelling storyline.
Yep! It’s getting an anime called Collar x Malice Deep Cover. Not one film, but two feature-length shows. The first is out in Japan this month, the next in June.
The game company is the Idea Factory’s Otomate brand and it’s Studio DEEN who are making the anime, with Hell Girl director Hiroshi Watanabe at the helm.
Locationalisation company, one which tackles translations appropriately, Aksys is involved, and they say;
A terrorist organization’s brutal attack has left you fitted with a deadly souvenir — a poisonous collar that could end your life at any moment. With the situation spiraling out of control and time running out, five mysterious strangers appear to aid you in your quest for the truth. Who can you trust? Will you be able to save yourself and the soul of Shinjuku from the clutches of oblivion? In a city bound by malice, you are the only hope for salvation!
The original Collar × Malice otome was a visual novel that dates back to 2016, then Collar × Malice Unlimited was a PlayStation Vita game in 2018.
