WIT Studio Unveils the Autumn Chapter
The long-awaited anime adaptation of Agents of the Four Seasons has revealed its autumn-themed visual and a brand-new trailer, showcasing the series’ signature elegance and emotional tone. The adaptation, produced by WIT Studio, is based on the acclaimed light novel written by Kana Akatsuki, the celebrated author behind Violet Evergarden.
This latest visual marks the third major reveal after the previously released spring and summer visuals. The artwork captures the warm yet melancholic beauty of the autumn season, highlighting the anime’s central themes of time, love, and renewal.
Meet the Creative Team
The series is being directed by Ken Yamamoto, known for his work on Uma Musume Pretty Derby: Beginning of a New Era. The series composition is handled by Ayumu Hisao, who previously worked on I’m in Love with the Villainess, while Namiko Torii, who contributed to The Grimm Variations, serves as the character designer. Together, this team brings a balance of emotional storytelling and visual sophistication that fans of Kana Akatsuki’s work will instantly recognize.

About the Light Novel and Manga
Illustrated by Suoh, Agents of the Four Seasons began publication under ASCII Media Works’ Dengeki Bunko imprint in April 2021. The story has since earned praise for its lyrical writing and emotional depth. A manga adaptation illustrated by Nappa Komatsuka was launched in July 2022, adapting the first part of the story for readers who prefer visual storytelling.
Both the light novel and manga are licensed in English by Yen Press, making them easily accessible to global audiences.
A Mythic Tale of Seasons and Love
The story of Agents of the Four Seasons explores a world where the seasons themselves are living entities. Winter, once the only season, created Spring out of loneliness, and soon, Summer and Autumn followed to complete the cycle of life. The ones who maintain this balance are known as the Agents of the Four Seasons.
The protagonist, Hinagiku, the Agent of Spring, vanished a decade ago, taking the season of spring with her. After years of hardship, she finally returns to restore balance to the world. As she rekindles her connection with Winter, the story weaves themes of loss, devotion, and the cyclical nature of love—elements that are sure to resonate deeply with fans of Violet Evergarden.
What to Expect from the Anime
With its emotionally charged narrative, breathtaking visuals, and introspective tone, Agents of the Four Seasons is shaping up to be one of WIT Studio’s most anticipated projects. The autumn visual reinforces the series’ core theme—the beauty of change and impermanence. Fans can expect a blend of heartfelt storytelling, stunning scenery, and richly detailed character arcs when the anime debuts.
Final Thoughts
The new autumn visual for Agents of the Four Seasons captures the essence of Kana Akatsuki’s writing—gentle, bittersweet, and deeply human. With WIT Studio’s artistic direction and an experienced creative team behind the project, this adaptation promises to deliver a soulful and visually enchanting experience.
