This is the product of a new partnership between Studio Pierrot and Korean production house Red Dog Culture House. From the article:
Studio Pierrot, known for producing many popular anime series including Naruto, Bleach, Tokyo Ghoul, and Yu Yu Hakusho, announced a partnership that was signed in August 2024 with South Korea’s Red Dog Culture House to co-produce and invest in anime content aimed at the global market.
The partnership will see both studios collaborating on upcoming projects over the next three years through a production committee based in Japan.
As the partnership’s first project, the studios will produce an anime adaptation of Lim Kyung-bae and Kwon Soon-kyu’s Latna Saga: The Survival Sword King webtoon. Full-scale production is set to begin later this year.
Synopsis of Latna Saga from AniList:
After being recently discharged from military service and just drifting through life, Hanbin Ryu is suddenly transported to another world. However, his “guide line,” the system bestowed upon him to help with his survival and growth, was filled with errors, causing him to be stuck in the tutorial stage for over 20 years. When he is finally released from this personal hell, he finds everyone has turned against otherworlders like him. Just how will this low-level, super-tutorial newbie survive?
