Shūichirō Umeda and Yui Ishikawa discuss the highlights of P.A.WORKS' original TV anime "Dusk Beyond the End of the World".

――The importance of dialogue, indeed.

Ishikawa: Whether it's 200 years later, people and their interactions remain unchanged. It's not just about humans but also interactions with androids and between androids themselves. Understanding each other through dialogue is crucial, I believe. It taught me fresh perspectives.

As it's an original work, there are mysteries yet to be revealed, like why Yuugure resembles Towasa and why Akira time-leaped 200 years into the future. These are things to look forward to discovering.

Beyond the sci-fi elements, the importance of conversation and dialogue, even after 200 years, is embedded in the story. I hope you will look forward to seeing who Akira and Yuugure meet and what kind of love they discover.

Along with the sci-fi elements depicting a future 200 years ahead, A love story with unique charms only found in this work will unfold. What kind of story it will be, we definitely want to pay attention. It will be exciting to see what kind of narrative unfolds. "Dusk Beyond the End of the World" is currently airing in the "Super Animeism TURBO" slot on the MBS/TBS network of 28 stations from September 25, 2025.
