The Relative Worlds (Japanese: ソウタイセカイ, Hepburn: Sōtai Sekai) is a Japanese CGoriginal net animation (ONA) series planned and produced by Craftar.[1] The anime is divided into two parts: the first part was released on Hulu Japan on April 28, 2017, with the second part releasing on May 5, 2017.[2]
In October 2018, Craftar revealed that a film adaptation titled Even if the World Will End Tomorrow (Japanese: あした世界が終わるとしても, Hepburn: Ashita Sekai ga Owaru Toshitemo) would be released. The film premiered on January 25, 2019.[3] The film follows a slightly altered plot, with the staff and most of the main cast of the ONA returning to reprise their roles.
The story is set in Japan year 2020. Focuses on Shin Hazama, a third-year high school student who just lost his father. He encounters a version of himself who has spent a different life in another Japan, Jin. That's when he knew that the everyday life he has starts to crack, and battle between another world and another self begins.
Ashita SekaiEdit
The film centers on Shin and Kotori, who are both third years in high school. Shin lost his mother when he was little, and since then he has a tendency to close himself off. Kotori is his childhood friend who always looks out for him. One day, another "self" from another Japan appears in front of them.
Shin is a high school student who recently lost his father and moves in with his uncle Tetsuya. One day, he meets Jin, his other self from a parallel universe who wants to kill Kotori, as it'll end the suppressive reign of Kotori's other self in the parallel world, Princess Kotoko.
Jin comes from an oppressive version of Japan where it is under the ironclad rule of Princess Kotoko. After the death of his father, he sets out to a parallel universe to kill Kotoko's other self while facing obstacles in his way.
Kotori is Shin's childhood friend who has always tried to be there for him despite his reluctance. She is the target of the parallel world attacks as her other-self is an oppressive ruler.
Yuri is a scientist and the head of a mysterious research project that she is cooperating with Princess Kotoko on, behind the scenes.
