Edens Zero has been adapted from a manga series of the same name by Fairy Tail creator, Hiro Mashima. Much of Edens Zero's character designs are based on characters from the fan-favourite Fairy Tail. However, as Mashima has claimed before, that is the only similarity between the two series.

Fairy Tail is currently running the manga series Fairy Tail: 100 years Quest, which is a direct continuation of the original series. No plans for an anime adaptation of the series have been announced, yet. While you wait for Edens Zero in India and other countries, you can check out the trailer for the anime below -
