"Eleceed" Webcomic Anime Adaptation Is on the Way

Yara Sameh Webtoon Entertainment's Line Digital Frontier has greenlit an anime adaptation of the popular webcomic ' Eleceed ,' tapping Oscar-nominated DandeLion Animation Studio to bring the show to screens. The adaptation marks a new move in Webtoon's aggressive push into animation, with the company developing 20 anime titles slated for 2025. 'Eleceed,' created by Jeho Son and Zhena, has racked up over 1.4 billion global views on the platform and is published in 10 languages, making it one of Webtoon's top-performing action titles worldwide. The series follows Jiwoo Seo, a kind-hearted teenager with hidden powers, and Kayden, a powerful being who takes refuge as a stray cat after being injured. Their unlikely partnership leads them through battles against formidable enemies and deep-rooted conspiracies. Hiroshi Nishikiori, known for 'Idolish7 Movie' and 'Honey Lemon Soda,' will direct the adaptation. Yousuke Kuroda, scribe for 'My Hero Academia,' will handle the series composition and script. Minami Sakura of 'Gridman Universe' will oversee character design. 'Eleceed delivers the perfect blend of high-speed action and a tightly woven storyline,' said Sinbae Kim, chief growth officer at Line Digital Frontier. 'The upcoming anime adaptation is a chance to introduce this dynamic series to a broader global audience, and we believe it marks an exciting new chapter in our global storytelling journey.' Creator Jeho Son expressed excitement about the news: 'It feels like a dream to finally share the news that Eleceed is getting an anime adaptation! This is all thanks to our incredible readers who have loved and supported the series. I hope the anime allows even more people to enjoy the world of Eleceed!' DandeLion Animation Studio, founded in Tokyo in 2007, earned Oscar recognition for its short film 'Magic Candies,' which was nominated in the Short Animation category at the 97th Academy Awards. The studio also produced 'The First Slam Dunk,' which became the 12th highest-grossing film in Japanese box office history. To promote the adaptation, DandeLion president Kazuhiro Nishikawa will appear at Anime Expo in Los Angeles on July 6 to share production insights. The 'Eleceed' anime joins Webtoon's expanding slate of adaptations, which includes the highly anticipated 'Omniscient Reader' anime with Aniplex and Crunchyroll, and the recently announced 'Teenage Mercenary' adaptation. Recent Webtoon anime releases include 'Viral Hit,' 'Tower of God Season 2,' 'True Beauty,' and 'Senpai Is an Otokonoko' on Crunchyroll.
