About BNA

BNA (BNA ビー・エヌ・エー) arrives as an action anime by TRIGGER (2020), and the premise is easy to summarize. What the story covers: In the 21st century, the existence of animal-humans came to light after being hidden in the darkness of history. Michiru lived life as a normal human, until one day she all at once turns into a tanuki-human.

From there, she runs away and takes refuge in a special city area called "Anima Metropolis" that was set up 10 years ago for animal-humans to be able to live as themselves. There Michiru runs into Shirou, a wolf-human who hates humans. Through Shirou, Michiru begins to learn about the worries, lifestyle, and joys of the animal-humans.

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Michiru Kagemori (Sumire Morohoshi) and Shirou Oogami (Yoshimasa Hosoya) are two of the characters you will meet early. Think of it as a pick for viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. With 12 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
