Mari Yamazaki’s manga “Thermae Romae” will be adapted into a three-episode animated TV miniseries on Fuji Television Network Inc.’s “noitaminA” midnight animation slot, which starts later this month.
The manga is a popular series currently running in Enterbrain Inc.’s Monthly Comic Beam magazine.
“Thermae Romae” revolves around a bath architect in ancient Rome who is having a hard time coming up with ideas. Out of the blue, he gets caught up in a time warp and finds himself in a bathhouse in modern Japan. When he returns to his own time and place, he applies his newfound ideas and revolutionizes Roman baths.
