Guilty Gear is a fighting game franchise developed by Arc System Works and created by the talented artist Daisuke Ishiwatari. Recognized for its detailed anime visuals, memorable original characters, distinctive rock/heavy metal soundtrack, unique gameplay, and a rich tapestry of rock and heavy metal references, as well as its somewhat gothic aesthetic. The first title in the series, Guilty Gear, debuted on the PlayStation in 1998. Since then, it has won over fans with its significant difficulty and peculiar gothic style, which stood out in a fighting game landscape dominated by other titles such as Darkstalkers and Groove on Fight.

Finally, other details about the "GUILTY GEAR STRIVE: DUAL RULERS" anime will be shared soon.
