Rick and Morty: The Anime – Tokyo’s Ultimate Multiversal Mayhem Unveiled!

Ready for a Multiversal Adventure? Buckle Up!

Imagine Rick and Morty touching down in Tokyo, armed with interdimensional gadgets and a penchant for chaos. Pretty wild, right? Well, lucky for us, we don’t have to imagine anymore. Adult Swim just dropped an early preview of “Rick and Morty: The Anime”, and the world’s about to get a whole lot weirder (and cooler).

The Premise: What We Know So Far

A Fresh Spin on Familiar Faces

Scheduled to premiere on Adult Swim and Max in 2024 (and on Adult Swim Canada), the anime spin-off promises to be a rollercoaster of familiar yet fresh chaos. Unlike typical adaptations, this isn’t a frame-by-frame remake. Instead, it’s an original work by Takashi Sano, known for Tower of God and those unforgettable “Rick and Morty vs. Genocider” and “Summer Meets God (Rick Meets Evil)” shorts.

Behind the Scenes: The Dream Team

• Director & Writer: Takashi Sano
• Animation Studio: Telecom Animation Film (Lupin III, Shenmue the Animation)
• Producers: Sola Entertainment

Sound and Music Maestros

Music is composed by none other than Tetsuya Takahashi, ensuring that our senses will be as overloaded as Rick after a few too many microbrews. The opening theme, “Love is Entropy,” is performed by OC from Code of Zero and Cameron Earnshaw. OtoneZ’s lyrical and musical genius is woven seamlessly into the track. Get ready to hum this catchy tune for days.
