Tenkai Knights (season)

Tenkai Knights''' is a Japanese-Canadian anime series commisioned by Spin Master and Shogakukan Productions. '''

Development
In May 2013 an anime subcontracting studio, Studio Wanpack, listed the at that time unannounced anime Tenkai Knights as a current project without revealing background information. Almost one month later it was announced that Spin Master, which previously worked on the Bakugan franchise and after that failed with the French-Canadian co-production Redakai, comissioned the anime together with Shopro, which also is involved in several notable anime, like Duel Masters. On the same occasion, the American broadcast in Fall on Cartoon Network was announced. Also first details of the plot were revealed. In late July 2013 Voice Actor Todd Haberkorn tweeted that Tenkai Knights will start its run on August 24, 2013. On August 10, a trailer was uploaded on the YouTube Channel of Tenkai Knights and zap2it listed the first episode at 7:30 AM.

Story
Saving the world is serious business and should never be taken lightly. It is only for the brave of heart. Guren, Ceylan, Chooki, and Toxsa were not planning on being heroes when they accidentally stumbled into an inter-dimensional portal. Ripped through space and time, they reemerged on another world as Bravenwolf, Tributon, Lydendor, and Valorn… the legendary Tenkai Knights!
