Disney Plus has announced the latest addition to its expanding collection of Japanese anime. The Fable is a series that’s inspired by a hugely popular manga of the same name, and will follow the story of a skilled assassin who must lay low for a while. It’s set to premiere globally on the Disney Plus platform on April 7.
Katsuhisa Minami's The Fable manga, which captivated readers in Japan’s Weekly Young Magazine from 2014 to 2019, has sold millions of copies over the years. Its transition to the screen is brought to life by Tezuka Productions, under the guidance of seasoned anime director Ryōsuke Takahashi.
