Production I.G. formally announced that they are working on Oblivion Island: Haruka and the Magic Mirror (Hottarake no Shima: Haruka to Maho no Kagami), a CG film, as a co-production with Fuji TV.

Oblivion is co-authored by Hirotaka Adachi (The "Otsuichi," author of Goth and Calling You) and Shinsuke Sato (director of Princess Blade). Sato will also serve as the film's director.

Oblivion's story focuses on Haruka, a teen girl who finds herself lost in a mystical world of creatures that collect the forgotten and abandoned treasures of childhood.

The film is expected to hit Japan in summer 2009.
