ABOUT
This story began as Akiwashi’s university graduation film, a labor of love that took a year and a half to complete.
Except for the music and voice acting, Akiwashi produced everything alone, from storyboarding and animation to visual design and direction.
Originally conceived as a short anime video, Akiwashi always dreamed of expanding the story into a novel and, one day, a full-length animated film.
Now that the novel has become a reality, the growing interest in a feature adaptation has been an unexpected and joyful surprise.
With visual storytelling at its core, every scene was crafted to be cinematically beautiful. Akiwashi believes that if Living in the World Without Magic were ever adapted into a feature film, it would become something truly special.
The full feature film reveals the original story behind the short anime.
