It may be a hard pill to swallow, but we’re just a couple of months way from October. Soon enough we’ll be welcoming cozy sweater weather, discount Halloween candy, and a brand new season of anime premieres. One of the many anime set to hit Japanese airwaves and global streaming services that season is Talentless Nana, a shocking psychological thriller that is far more than meets the eye.

Crunchyroll publishes the Talentless Nana manga in English, and describes the story as follows:
An academy on an island in unnavigable waters. There, students trained tirelessly, to fight back against the enemies of humanity. The protagonist, a student newly transferred there, also sets out with the intention of eradicating all enemies of humankind. An unpredictable, intellectual suspense story of justice and evil.
The Talentless Nana anime is being produced at animation studio Bridge, with Shinji Ishihira of Fairy Tail, Log Horizon, and Tokyo Majin fame directing it. Fumihiko Shimo, who previously wrote for Air, Kanon, and Clannad, is in charge of the series scripts. Character designs are being handled by Satohiko Sano, who previously worked on Heybot! and Welcome to Demon School, Iruma-kun.
