A television anime adaptation of Shou Aimoto's Kemono Jihen (Demon Incidents) manga was announced at a stage event at Jump Festa 2020 on Saturday.

Synopsis
When a series of animal bodies that rot away after a single night begin appearing in a remote mountain village, Inugami, a detective from Tokyo who specializes in the occult, is called to investigate.

While working the case, he befriends a strange boy who works in the field every day instead of going to school. Shunned by his peers and nicknamed "Dorota-bou" after a yokai that lives in the mud, he helps Inugami uncover the truth behind the killings—but supernatural forces are at work, and while Dorota-bou is just a nickname, it might not be the only thing about the boy that isn't human.

Aimoto began drawing the supernatural action manga in Jump SQ. magazine in December 2016. Shueisha published the ninth volume on November 1. The February 2020 issue of Jump SQ., which goes on sale on January 4, 2020, will feature the series on its cover.

The characters and the premise looks great! Haven't read it yet but i can tell that it has potential. Let's just hope that it won't get overshadowed by Jujitsu kaisen.
