The first promotional video for Momentary Lily has been released, offering a look at the original anime from Studio GoHands. The trailer showcases the series' blend of high-octane action against robotic invaders and the quiet moments of camaraderie and cooking among its all-female cast. The visual style aligns with GoHands' previous works, known for their fluid animation and distinct character designs, as seen in titles like K: Return of Kings and Hand Shakers.
The synopsis suggests a post-apocalyptic setting where amnesiac protagonist Renge and four other young women with unique abilities fight for survival. The PV highlights their battles against mechanical monstrosities, interspersed with scenes of them preparing and enjoying meals together. This juxtaposition of intense combat and slice-of-life elements, particularly food, appears to be a central theme, hinting at a narrative that balances survival with finding joy in their limited world.
Momentary Lily is set to premiere in Winter 2025. While the trailer doesn't explicitly detail the plot's trajectory, it emphasizes the importance of friendship and the uncovering of secrets related to the characters' powers and pasts amidst the ruins of civilization.
