Aria the Scarlet Ammo Anime 15th Anniversary! New Short Anime Production Green-lit

To commemorate the 15th anniversary of the Aria the Scarlet Ammo anime on April 15th, the production of a new short anime has been green-lit.

The series is based on the popular light novel written by Chugaku Akamatsu, which has surpassed 9 million copies in total circulation. Detectives who use armed force to resolve problems and combat worsening crime are known as "Butei." Kinji Tōyama was a student at Butei High School, a training facility for Butei, but due to a certain incident, he was planning to quit Butei High and transfer to a regular school.

Then one day, for some reason, Kinji finds his life targeted by a bomber while on his way to school. But just as he is cornered, a beautiful girl suddenly descends from the sky in front of him. Her name is Aria H. Kanzaki. She is an exceptionally skilled Butei, which is hard to imagine from her petite and adorable appearance... and a fierce, aggressive girl. This encounter will drastically change the future for both Kinji and Aria.
