Plans have been announced to adapt CyberStep's MMORPG Onigiri into a TV anime slated to broadcast starting in April 2016. The fantasy is based in a world where Oni and other Youkai live alongside humans and must save the land from the destructive forces of the Kamigui, once sealed away by Sun Goddess, Amaterasu Oomikami.
