Summary: The premise of the project is the 70% or higher possibility that a magnitude 7.0 earthquake will occur in Tokyo in the next 30 years. The anime will depict what would happen if an 8.0 earthquake took place. The story will center on Mirai, a middle school freshman girl who goes to Tokyo’s artificial Odaiba Island for a robot exhibition with her brother Yutaka at the start of summer vacation. A powerful tremor emanates from an ocean trench, the famed Tokyo Tower and Rainbow Bridge crumble and fall, and the landscape of Tokyo changes in an instant. With the help of a motorcycle delivery woman named Mari who they meet on Odaiba, Mirai and Yutaka strive to head back to their Setagaya home in western Tokyo.

yes. i watch this after the recent earthquake in japan. the story is fantastic. the ending is sad but if it didn't end it this way, this anime wouldn't be that memorable then, right?

i'd share this anime with my friends and my niece (4 years old) and nephew (3 years old) when they grow up. it'd be great if there is chinese dudded or mandarin subtitle so my mum can watch it too.
