Kissdum R – Engage Planet is an original project from studio Satelight. Yasuchika Nagaoka (Crest of the Stars, Banner of the Stars) served as chief director on the project, with Hidekazu Sato (The Slayers NEXT, Aquarion Logos) taking the director’s chair. Sushio (Kill la Kill, One Piece: Baron Omatsuri and the Secret Island) provided character designs, while chief director Yasuchika Nagaoka took charge of series composition.
Maiden Japan released the title in North America, and describes the series as:
The destruction of a cruise ship leaves thousands dead, but the body count is only beginning. As researchers try to make sense of the strange new fish and insects appearing around the world, scientist Rurika Yuno and the N.I.D.F. attempt to track down the source of the mutation, a mysterious artifact called the Book of The Dead. When the Book is finally located, all Hell breaks loose. Literally. As swarms of hellspawned fireflies and giant unearthly creatures attack mercilessly across the planet, Rurika is forced to use the Book to resurrect her dead lover, fighter pilot Aiba Shu. But can even humanity’s last desperate line of defense – the Necrodiver – defeat an ancient evil whose only goal is to exterminate all mankind? The final war has begun in KISSDUM R – ENGAGE PLANET!
