9-nine- Ruler’s Crown TV Anime Unveils Trailer, Confirms July 2025 Debut
The official site for the upcoming TV anime 9-nine- Ruler's Crown has dropped its first trailer, announcing the series will be airing in Japan in July 2025. This port is from the visual novel series 9-nine-, which was originally developed by PALETTE.
The trailer also announces the ending theme of the anime, "Pale Blaze," performed by Chihiro Yonekura. She had performed all the opening and closing themes for the original game series.. The track is written and arranged by Shota Horie, with lyrics by Tako Yamaguchi. Yonekura said that the emotional depth of the song strongly moved her even during its early stages of production and hopes audiences are touched by its genuine message upon broadcast.
9-nine- is a supernatural mystery told through four interconnected chapters, each in the same city but with alternate heroines. The heroine, Kakeru Niimi, gradually discovers the town's concealed powers and its unsettling secrets. The series takes place in Shiromitsugawa, an apparently ordinary college town that in the past tried to increase tourism by way of a failed anime project based on local myths. After a holy relic gets destroyed at the town shrine, Kakeru and a few others wake up to mysterious powers. A countdown to prevent a lethal superhuman menace follows.
The anime brings back the game's original voice cast:
- Atsushi Abe as Kakeru Niimi
- Misato Fukuen as Miyako Kujo
- Atsumi Tanezaki as Sora Niimi
- Yuri Yamaoka as Haruka Kosaka
- Akane Fujita as Noa Yuuki
- Kazutomi Yamamoto as Yoichi Fukazawa
- Tomokazu Sugita as Renya Takamine
- Hana Takeda as Satsuki Naruse
