Philippine television channel GMA-7 announced with a commercial on Saturday that it will air the Gaist Crusher anime beginning on Saturday, September 30. The anime will air every Saturday at 8:50 a.m.
In the anime's story, Gaimetal, a metal ore with high amounts of pure energy, was discovered 50,000 meters (160,000 feet) underground in 2047, and mining began all around the world. However, Gaist, metallic lifeforms whose bodies are entirely encrusted with Gaimetal, emerged in 2055 and began attacking people. In 2064, Rekka, Hayato, Kurama, and Siren are among those who suit up in Gaist Gear and battle over 100 varieties of Gaist creatures.
The anime premiered in October 2013, and is part of a cross-media production by CAPCOM. The franchise received a manga by Yasuki Tanaka, which ran in Shueisha's V Jump and Saikyō Jump magazines from 2013 to 2015. The anime also received a Nintendo 3DS game in 2013, and another 3DS game in 2014.
