The project was first announced in January, and consists of a TV anime series called <em>Estab Life: Great Escape<\/em>, a movie called <em>Estab Life: Revengers Road<\/em>, and the aforementioned mobile game <em>Estab Life: Unity Memories<\/em>. They all take place in the same world but in a different timeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u8c37\u53e3\u609f\u6717\u30aa\u30ea\u30b8\u30ca\u30eb\u4f01\u753b\u300e\u30a8\u30b9\u30bf\u30d6\u30e9\u30a4\u30d5\u300f\u30d7\u30ed\u30b8\u30a7\u30af\u30c8PV\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TkMwbU_H9vc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The story of <em>Estab Life<\/em> takes place in the distant future, where the human population has peaked and is on the decline. Humanity has created an AI to manage the ecosystem in order to ensure its prosperity and also carried out a human diversification experiment, which resulted in the creation of diverse genetically modified races such as beastmen and demons. They live in \u201cclusters,\u201d which are cities within Tokyo (Shinjuku, Ueno, Akihabara, etc.) protected by walls. Each cluster has its own culture, and its people live under constant surveillance of AI to avoid extinction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not much has been announced about the game, but two characters named Ash and Ouka were revealed today. Gakuto Kajiwara will voice the protagonist Ash, and Kanon Takao will voice Ouka. Other well-known voice actors including Kensho Ono, Satsumi Matsuda, Yuuki Kuwahara, Minami Takahashi, Kenjiro Tsuda, and Makoto Furukawa are also involved in the project.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-001.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-001-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-001-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-001-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-001-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-001-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-001-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-001-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-001-747x420.jpg 747w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-002.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-002-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-002-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-002-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-002-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-002-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-002-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-002-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220203-9277-002-747x420.jpg 747w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Hiroyuki Hashimoto, the director of <em>Estab Life: Great Escape<\/em>, <em>Slow Start<\/em>, and <em>Is the Order a Rabbit?
