Manga Dekin no Mogura Gets TV Anime in Summer 2025

18 Nov, 2024 by W~W

Key visual for the anime series *Dekin no Mogura* (*Dekin no Mogura: The Earthbound Mole*).  The image features a young man with short, spiky green-brown hair, standing in a dimly lit, narrow alleyway. He wears a dark, loose-fitting, long-sleeved tunic with vertical stripes in shades of blue and teal, over a lighter colored undergarment. His pants are dark and cropped, and he wears dark sandals.  He holds a lantern-like object with a rope attached, seemingly made of woven strands. The alleyway is vibrant and stylized, with colorful buildings, hanging plants, and Japanese signage, including a banner reading 'Chu-to-dori' (apparently the alley's name).  The background features a variety of plants, and shopfronts with glowing windows, creating a neon-tinged atmosphere. The overall artistic style is anime, with a slightly painterly and stylized approach that blends vivid colors and darker shadows.
