Nikkan Sports has reported that AKB48 will be getting an anime, which will air next spring. The title of the project as well as the station it will broadcast on are not known.
The anime will follow nine idol candidates who dream of being "legendary idols". The members of the group will be battling one another in auditions to be the voice actors in the project and their rankings in the "general elections" will not be a factor. 30 will be selected and announced in November with the finals to be held publicly. Nine will be chosen and the final girls will also perform the theme song.
Shoji Kawamori, co-creator of the Macross franchise, is the project's planner and chief director. Toshimichi Ootsuki, executive producer of Evangelion 1.0, will be the executive producer of the new project. AKB48's producer, Yasushi Akimoto is planning and supervising the project. Mari Okada will be supervising and writing the scripts with Mikan Ehime (Macross Frontier) to design the characters. Satelight will be animating the series.
