The anime Sparks of Tomorrow (20 Seiki Denki Mokuroku) has a confirmed premiere date of July and will be released exclusively on Netflix. Along with the announcement, the production released a new visual, reinforcing the dramatic and steampunk tone of the work.

The series is directed by Minoru Ota, with animation by Kyoto Animation, a studio known for its technical skill and narrative sensitivity. Therefore, anticipation for the project is growing among fans of original anime and period dramas.

The story takes place in an alternate version of Kyoto in the early 20th century. In this world, only steam technology has advanced, while electricity remains a distant dream. On the other hand, the city is shrouded in smoke, reflecting a stagnant future.

The story follows a boy scarred by the loss of his brother and a girl who hides her desires and regrets. Meanwhile, they join forces in the search for the mysterious "20th Century Electric Catalog," an object that represents forgotten dreams.

Thus, Sparks of Tomorrow promises a journey about overcoming challenges, making choices, and regenerating, blending adventure, emotion, and historical fiction.
